2024 Map of Foley Pond

About this map

The North Branch Penobscot River cuts through this uninhabited reach of Somerset County, where the landscape is defined by its complex network of waterways and timber access routes. The Golden Rd follows the river's path, serving as the primary corridor through a terrain punctuated by significant peaks like Comstock Mtn and Green Mtn. This area is characterized by numerous small bodies of water and their drainage systems, including Foley Pond, Cunningham Pond, and Fitzgerald Pond. The hydrology of the region is further detailed by the numerous streams that feed these basins, such as Rattling Brook and Spencer Brook. The presence of specialized infrastructure like the Cutoff Rd and S Branch Access Rd reflects the modern management of this backcountry environment, providing a clear picture of the contemporary spatial organization of the North Woods.
