About this map

The Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds through this heavily forested landscape in Piscataquis County, crossing prominent elevations and skirting remote water bodies. The terrain is defined by the high ground of Potaywadjo Ridge and the southwestern rise of Cooper Mtn. A complex network of drainage feeds into major bodies like Nahmakanta Lake, Jo-Mary Lake, and the sprawling Pemadumcook Lake to the east.

Remote access is provided primarily by the winding Jo-Mary Rd, which cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The map reveals a wild geography of interconnected ponds and brooks, including the distinctive Tumbledown Dick Stream and Fourth Debsconeag Lake. This 2014 survey documents a region where the natural environment remains largely uninterrupted, centered on the flow of the Nahmakanta Stream.
