2011 Map of Greenlaw Pond

About this map

The Machias River winds through this section of the Maine interior, defining a landscape of complex waterways and timberland in the early twenty-first century. The presence of Orcutts Camp and crossings like Greenlaw Crossing and Russell Crossing suggests the continued importance of this area for traditional woods work and recreation. High ground is marked by prominent peaks including Greenlaw Mountain and Bald Mountain, while the drainage system is anchored by the central Greenlaw Pond. Access to this remote Aroostook County terrain is provided by primary forest arteries such as Realty Rd and Foster Rand Rd. The map illustrates a network of brooks and streams, including Moosehorn Stream and McConnell Brook, that feed into the larger river systems, reflecting the hydrology of the North Woods.
