About this map

Soubunge Mountain anchors the north-central terrain of this Piscataquis County landscape, a region defined by its vast interconnected waterways and timber-management boundaries. The southern portion of the map showcases the critical hydraulic infrastructure of the late 20th century, including the Ripogenus Dam and Chesuncook Dam which regulate the flow between Ripogenus Lake and Chesuncook Lake. The West Branch Penobscot River cuts through the southeast corner, emerging from the dramatic Ripogenus Gorge. The map records a wilderness divided by the Monument Line and various township ranges such as T 3 R 12 W E L S, where a network of private roads provides access to isolated water bodies like Brighton Deadwater and Harrington Lake. This documentation of the Maine woods during the 1980s illustrates the scale of logging infrastructure and water control necessary to manage the Penobscot watershed.
