2024 Map of Nesowadnehunk Lake

About this map

McCarty sits at the nexus of logging roads and high peaks in this remote section of the Maine north woods. The landscape is dominated by the massive profile of Center Mtn and Strickland Mtn, which overlook the expansive Nesowadnehunk Lake. The presence of Park Tote Rd, Turnpike Rd, and Nesowadnehunk Rd indicates a geography defined by historic transport routes that once supported the regional timber industry. These roads thread through a complex hydrological network of bogs and brooks, including Kennedy Bog and Black Spruce Bog. Smaller water bodies like Little Nesowadnehunk Lake and Thissell Pond are tucked into the drainages between granite heights like Morse Mtn and McCarty Mtn, offering a detailed view of the drainage patterns of Nesowadnehunk Stream before it joins the larger river systems to the south.
