About this map

Mid Brook Mtn and the surrounding drainage basins of the North Woods define this terrain, located at the intersection of Penobscot, Aroostook, and Piscataquis counties. The landscape is dominated by a dense network of waterways, most notably Mooseleuk Stream, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Little Mooseleuk Stream, Cedar Brook, and Rocky Brook. A significant natural landmark, Boars Head Falls, sits along the Mooseleuk as it winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle.

Modern access is provided through a system of timber and management roads like Chandler Mtn Rd and Pell and Pell Rd, reflecting the region's continued use as working forest land. In the southern reaches, Brown Pond offers a rare stationary water body amidst the predominantly fluvial environment. This map captures the remote character of the Maine woods, where the topography is shaped by the descent of Middle Brook and Smith Brook toward the larger stream valleys.
