2021 Map of Mattamiscontis Mountain

About this map

Mattamiscontis Mtn and Little Mattamiscontis Mtn dominate the central topography of this Maine wilderness, rising above a landscape defined by an intricate network of streams and glacial lakes. To the south, South Branch Lake is dotted with features like Black Cat Island, Birch Island, and Bog Point, while Mattamiscontis Lake anchors the northern portion of the quadrangle. The area's human history is marked by the presence of the Seboeis Cem near Whitney Ridge and Mountain Rd. The terrain is characterized by long, parallel elevations such as Miller Ridge and Hazeltine Ridge, which run alongside East Branch Seboeis Stream. This map details a region where logging roads like Maine RD and S Branch Camp RD provide access to remote water bodies like Tack Pond and the Sam Ayers Deadwater, reflecting the enduring character of Penobscot County's backcountry.
