About this map

Woodland and New Sweden townships define this corner of Aroostook County, where the landscape is a network of small agricultural settlements and wooded ridges. The village of Sweden serves as a local hub, anchored by the New Sweden Consolidated Sch and connected to the surrounding countryside via Westmanland Road. Further south, the community at Woodland Center and the nearby Woodland Ch illustrate the dispersed yet organized settlement patterns of the late twentieth century.

Natural features like the Madawaska River and Little Mad Awaska River carve through the terrain, which rises to heights at Fogelin Hill and Jacobson Hill. The presence of several smaller water bodies, including Mud Lake and Salmon Brook Lake, alongside the Bangor And Aroostook rail line passing through Blackstone and Colby, highlights the historical reliance on both water and rail for transportation and local industry.
