About this map

Somerset Junction and Tarratine anchor this northern Maine landscape, where the waters of Indian Pond and Brassua Lake dominate the terrain. The map traces the winding paths of numerous waterways, including Misery Stream, Churchill Stream, and the West Outlet, which define the drainage patterns between prominent elevations like Misery Ridge and Cornish Hill. The survey captures the complex hydrology of the region, specifically how Indian Stream and Gold Brook feed into the central pond system.

In the southeast corner, the steep rise of Big Moose Mtn stands as a significant topographic landmark overlooking Burnham Brook. Transportation in this area is characterized by rural routes such as Jackman Rd and Tarratine Rd, which historically connected these remote outposts. The boundary between Somerset Co and Piscataquis Co is clearly delineated, illustrating the political division through this wooded and water-heavy territory.
