2021 Map of McKinnon Brook

About this map

McKinnon Brook and its various tributaries define the interior landscape of this timberland region in northern Maine. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the Aroostook County woods, where Ben Glazier Brook and the W Br Ben Glazier Brook cut through the high-elevation terrain. This area, largely devoid of permanent settlements, is instead crisscrossed by historic utility routes such as the Michaud Tote Rd. These "tote roads" were traditionally used by loggers to haul supplies to remote camps, reflecting the long-standing industrial heritage of the North Maine Woods. Other water features like Stewart Brook, Savage Brook, and Bogan Brook mark the low-lying wetlands between ridges, while the presence of the Inn Rd suggests localized access points within the vast forest network managed by the state and private interests.
