2011 Map of Ninemile Bridge

About this map

The Saint John River serves as the dominant geographical feature of this remote Aroostook County landscape, winding through a region primarily defined by its hydrology and timber-related infrastructure. The small settlement at Ninemile Bridge represents a rare point of human intersection in the deep north woods, situated where Realty Rd crosses the river. This crossing and the junction with Thibodeau Rd illustrate the essential transportation network used by the Maine logging industry. Numerous tributaries feed into the main river, including the family-named Billy Jack Brook and Ed Jones Pond, alongside consistently named watercourses like Sixmile Brook and Ninemile Brook. The map depicts a wilderness area where life and commerce are dictated by the flow of water and the accessibility of gravel haul roads through the dense interior.
