2018 Map of Katahdin Lake

About this map

Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument dominates this area of Piscataquis County, encompassing a dramatic topography defined by the Turner Mountains. The massifs of North Turner Mtn, South Turner Mtn, and East Turner Mtn rise sharply above a complex network of glacial ponds and drainages. At the heart of the landscape lies Katahdin Lake, fed by S Turner Brook and drained by Katahdin Brook. The map reveals a transition between high summits and lower riparian zones where Wassataquoik Stream and Sandy Stream carve through the terrain. The presence of Windey Pitch and established routes like Roaring Brook Rd and Hauling Road 1 indicates the historical and modern access points for forestry and conservation efforts in this northern Maine wilderness.
