About this map

Millimagassett Lake and the surrounding wilderness of the Maine North Woods dominate this 1980s landscape, where Penobscot and Piscataquis counties meet. The area is defined by a dense network of water bodies and streams, including the southern reach of the Aroostook River and the winding Munsungan Stream. Human presence is sparse, appearing primarily as sporting camps and logging infrastructure like Libby Camp and the aptly named Moosehorn Crossing.

High points such as Old Baldface and Libby Pinnacle overlook a terrain carved by glacial activity, featuring ridges like Woodlot Ridge and the Isthmus. The map documents numerous smaller ponds and bogs, including Big Marsh Pond, Tilly Pond, and Big Beaver Pond. A system of private roads provides the only access through these townships, illustrating the industrial timberlands character of the region during the late twentieth century.
