2024 Map of King And Bartlett Mountain

About this map

King and Bartlett Lake and Joe Pokum Pond anchor this high-elevation landscape in the Maine North Woods, where the border between Franklin and Somerset counties follows the north-south drainage divide. This interior region is defined by a dense network of glacial ponds and mountain peaks, including Spotted Spruce Mtn and King and Bartlett Mtn. The transport network relies on private timber roads such as Hurricane Rd and Spencer Rd, which navigate the steep rises of Camera Ridge and Farm Hill. The concentration of named water bodies, from the small Chittenden Pond to the expansive Joe Pokum Bog, suggests a landscape shaped by persistent wetlands and seasonal flow. This 2024 map documents the modern terrain of a working forest area where traditional place names like Pickle Hill persist alongside contemporary land management routes.
