About this map

Parlin Pond and the surrounding heights of the Maine north woods define this landscape in Somerset County. The settlement at Mackamp sits along the Moose River in the northeastern corner, near where the water flows into the expansive Long Pond. This area is characterized by a dense network of water bodies and streams, including Piel Brook, Lang Stream, and Parlin Stream, which navigate between significant peaks like Parlin Mtn and Williams Mtn.

Modern transportation is centered on Us-201, which skirts the western edge of the pond. Numerous forest and service roads like Smith Pond Rd and Cold Stream Mountain Rd penetrate the interior, providing access to remote locations such as Fernald Pond and Little Berry Pond. The map documents a classic Maine wilderness interior, where the relationship between high ridges and glacial ponds remains the primary geographic feature.
