2021 Map of Griswold

About this map

Saint Croix Stream and the Blackwater River dominate this Aroostook County landscape, where the northern Maine woods meet established rural settlements. The area around Masardis serves as the primary hub, with local routes like Black Water Rd and Griswold Rd connecting the smaller locales of Blackwater and Griswold. The terrain is characterized by significant wetlands and water bodies, including Cranberry Pond, Hall Pond, and Matherson Pond, alongside the prominent heights of Pollard Mtn and Picard Hill. The drainage patterns of Quinsy Brook, Meadow Brook, and Matherson Brook reveal a complex network of waterways that have historically shaped the navigation and land use of this interior timber region, providing a detailed look at the geographical layout of these remote communities in the 21st century.
