2011 Map of Foley Pond

About this map

The North Branch Penobscot River winds through this timber-rich portion of Somerset County, defining the drainage patterns for a series of high-altitude ponds and brooks. This 2011 survey illustrates a landscape primarily shaped by modern forestry infrastructure, where the Golden Rd and Seboomook Rd provide the primary access points into the backcountry. The terrain is anchored by elevations like Comstock Mountain and Green Mountain, which overlook a network of water bodies including Foley Pond, Cunningham Pond, and the smaller Lane Pond. The presence of numerous brooks such as Spencer Brook, Dole Brook, and Rattling Brook feeding into the Penobscot system highlights the area's importance for watershed management and recreational sporting. This map records the contemporary road network and hydrography as they appeared in the early 21st century, serving as a baseline for the region's environmental and geographic profile.
