2024 Map of Frost Pond

About this map

Grand Lake Matagamon dominates the eastern edge of this wilderness landscape in Piscataquis County, where the East Branch Penobscot River winds through dense forest and lowlands. The terrain is defined by dramatic water features and isolated summits, including the notable waterfall at Grand Pitch and the rise of Wadleigh Mtn. Extensive wetlands like Wadleigh Bog and smaller water bodies such as Hudson Pond and Blunder Pond illustrate the complex drainage patterns of the North Maine Woods. A network of primitive timber and access roads, including Park Tote Rd and the evocatively named Moose Bone Rd, provides the only modern passage through these remote townships. This survey captures a modern look at a region where traditional logging routes intersect with preserved natural areas, showing the continued significance of names like Brayley Ridge and Webster Brook in local geography.
