About this map

Mooselookmeguntic Lake dominates this Western Maine landscape, serving as a central hub for the historic sporting camps and seasonal settlements that define the region. The village of Oquossoc sits at the junction where the Kennebago River meets the lake, appearing here alongside the Oquossoc Angling Assn and the landmark Indian Rock. This survey highlights the complex timberland geography of Adamstown and Richardsontown, where lake levels are managed by the Upper Dam at the western edge of the sheet.

The map details a network of islands and points, from Students Island to Farrington Island, reflecting the area's long-standing draw for recreation and conservation. Smaller settlements like South Rangeley and Macy are connected by roads skirting the base of Bald Mountain, illustrating how the mountainous terrain dictated the development of transportation and summer colonies in the Rangeley area during the early 1980s.
