2021 Map of Farrar Mountain

About this map

Farrar Mountain and its neighboring peaks dominate this part of the Maine North Woods, where high-elevation terrain is broken only by an intricate system of glacial water bodies. The landscape is defined by massive landforms like Shaw Mountain and Trout Mountain, which rise sharply above the interconnected waters of Second Roach Pond and the northern reaches of First Roach Pond. The drainage pattern is complex, with Long Bog and Hinckley Cove indicating the saturated, low-lying transitions between these significant water bodies. Human intervention is sparse in this interior wilderness, limited primarily to Frenchtown Road, which provides the only major terrestrial access through the township. Topographic details reveal the prominence of Long Ridge and the isolation of high-country waters like Black Pond and Bear Pond, illustrating the topographic challenges of this Piscataquis County timber and recreation corridor.
