About this map

Troutdale serves as the primary point of settlement on this Maine landscape, situated along the western edge of Moxie Pond. The topography is dominated by significant elevations and water bodies, including the prominent peaks of Mosquito Mtn and Bald Mtn. A network of logging and access roads like Shirley Tote Rd and Troutdale Rd navigate the steep terrain, while the Appalachian National Scenic Trail traverses the southern reaches of the quadrangle.

Water plays a central role in the geography here, with the long, narrow reach of Moxie Pond pinched by the Black Narrows. Numerous smaller lakes and brooks, such as Goose Pond and Big Sandy Stream, drain the surrounding highlands, including Johns Hill and Black Nubble. The presence of named islands like Burnt Jacket Island and Pine Island indicates a varied shoreline that has long supported local recreation and the timber industry.
