2021 Map of Lee

About this map

The town of Lee serves as the focal point for this survey of eastern Penobscot County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of glacial ponds and prominent peaks. Residential development is concentrated along Lee Rd and Winn Rd, with local history preserved at Academy Cem and Woodlawn Cem. The terrain rises sharply from the basin of Silver Lake to the heights of Mt Jefferson and Lookout Mtn, while the southern reaches of the quadrangle are dominated by the broad waters of Madagascal Pond and the surrounding wetlands of Madagascal Stream. The map details a transition from settled village life to the more remote timberlands, marked by family-named landmarks like Hale Farm Rd and Curtis Farm Rd. Modern residential enclaves such as Smart Ests and Whitten Shores line the northern banks of Silver Lake, contrasting with the undeveloped slopes of Moose Mtn and Bear Mtn further south.
