2014 Map of Nollesemic Lake

About this map

Nollesemic Lake sits at the heart of this Maine wilderness, north of the Penobscot River in a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage and wetlands. This 2014 U.S. Geological Survey representation documents the hydrography of the region, from the expansive East Branch Lake and Mattamiscontis Lake in the south to Shad Pond at the northern edge. The presence of Miner Brook Bog and numerous feeders like Trapper Brook and Comstock Brook illustrates the low-lying, water-saturated terrain typical of the North Woods. Human intervention is sparse, represented by Jr Mack Rd and the identified Grand Falls, suggesting a region primarily utilized for timber or recreation rather than permanent settlement. The map serves as a detailed guide to the distinct watersheds formed by Nollesemic Stream and Sam Ayers Stream as they flow through this unpopulated portion of Penobscot County.
