2011 Map of Hardwood Mountain

About this map

Southwest Branch Saint John River defines the landscape of this borderland region, winding through the remote timberlands of northern Maine and Quebec. The 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details the hydrological network where the Little Southwest Branch Saint John River joins the main flow, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the North Woods. The terrain is dominated by the prominence of Hardwood Mountain, which stands as a landmark in a territory primarily characterized by its watercourses and logging access routes. This map provides a clear record of the watershed near Dead Brook during the early 21st century, showing a landscape shaped by natural drainage rather than dense human settlement.
