About this map

Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument dominates this portion of Penobscot County, protecting a vast watershed where the Seboeis River and Little Seboeis River flow south toward their confluence with the East Branch Penobscot River. The landscape is defined by its drainage network, with the three branches of Swift Brook—the E Br Swift Brook, Middle Br Swift Brook, and W Br Swift Brook—forming a distinct hydrologic pattern in the eastern half of the quadrangle.

Lumbering history is evident through the naming of the Sherman Lumber Rd and various woods roads like Dead End Woods Rd and W End Rd. In the south, the settlement area of Stacyville connects to the wilderness via Stacyville Rd and Swift Brook Rd. Notable elevations include Lookout Mtn, while small water bodies like Wiley Pond and Potter Pond dot the northern forest, marking the transition into the dense woods of north-central Maine.
