2011 Map of Millinocket Lake West

About this map

Millinocket Lake and Munsungan Lake anchor this remote landscape in the Maine north woods, connected by a network of drainage systems and isolated ridges. The topography is defined by significant water bodies such as Atkins Pond and Big Caribou Pond, which feed into Caribou Brook and Aroostook Brook. The presence of The Thorofare indicates a navigable passage between larger lake sections, while Munsungan Falls marks a sharp change in the elevation of the local drainage. Aside from Huber Rd crossing the southern portion of the sheet, the area remains dominated by natural features like South Ridge and Caribou Ridge. This 2011 survey captures the hydrological complexity of the region before further changes in land management, offering a clear view of the ponds and brooks that have long supported the local timber and recreational history of Piscataquis County.
