2011 Map of Foster Ridge

About this map

Foster Ridge and Crockett Ridge define the interior of this Piscataquis County landscape, a territory dominated by water bodies and old transport routes. The presence of the Old Stage Coach Rd in the southeastern corner suggests early travel patterns that preceded modern development. The drainage network is particularly dense here, with the South Branch Austin Stream feeding into Weeks Basin and Baker Flowage, illustrating how the local hydrology shaped the low-lying areas between the ridges. Larger water bodies like Bald Mountain Pond and Austin Pond anchor the northern and western reaches, while smaller basins such as Thanksgiving Pond and Hedgehog Pond dot the more secluded timberlands. The network of local ways, including Foss Pond Rd and Tyler Field Rd, provides access through this heavily wooded area of Blanchard Township.
