About this map

The confluence of the Penobscot River and the Mattawamkeag River defines this portion of Penobscot County, where water and wood have historically shaped the landscape. The village of Mattawamkeag serves as the primary hub, situated just downstream from Gordon Falls. The surrounding territory is marked by small settlements like Molunkus and Back Settlement, connected by a network of local roads such as Sugar Shack Rd and Davis Farm Rd.

Significant wetlands and water bodies, including Mattaseunk Lake and the meandering Molunkus Stream, crisscross the northern sections. The map reveals the relationship between topography and human habitation, from the heights of Webb Hill and Beech Hill to the riverfront at Meadowville. This 2011 survey documents the access roads into the Mattawamkeag Wilderness Park, illustrating the region's character as a gateway to the Maine woods.
