2021 Map of Norcross

About this map

Norcross sits at the southern edge of a complex waterway network where the West Branch of the Penobscot River flows through a series of interconnected lakes. This 2021 survey shows a landscape dominated by the vast surfaces of Millinocket Lake, North Twin Lake, and Pemadumcook Lake. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Hammatt Ridge and Black Cat Mtn, which rise sharply from the forested basins. This modern topographic view captures the transition between Piscataquis Co and Penobscot Co, illustrating the intricate shoreline around Indian Point Island and Perrow Point. The road network consists primarily of routes like the Golden Rd and numerous fire roads, reflecting the region's managed timberlands and limited permanent settlement. Smaller water bodies like Wadleigh Pond and Elbow Lake are scattered throughout the low-lying wetlands, while Quakish Lake marks the eastern reach toward industrial centers.
