2024 Map of Northeast Bluff

About this map

Pleasant River Lake dominates the northwest quadrant of this Maine landscape, characterized by its irregular shoreline and deep inlets like Parker Cove and Dick Allen Cove. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent elevations and ridges, including Spruce Ridge, Southwest Bluff, and Northeast Bluff, which dictate the flow of numerous small waterways. A complex network of brooks and heaths, such as Allen Heath and Beech Hill Heath, drains the interior toward the Pleasant River and Mopang Stream. This 2024 map illustrates a modern view of Washington County's interior, where logging roads like Beech Hill Rd and Pretty Pond Rd provide access to the timberlands and water bodies. The presence of features like Bog Brook Flowage and Bridgham Swamp highlights the saturation of the low-lying glacial terrain between the hills.
