About this map

Alamoosook Lake and the interconnected waters of Branch Lake dominate this mid-century landscape on the border of Penobscot and Hancock counties. The area exhibits a rural economy transitioning toward recreation, evidenced by the established US Fish Hatchery near Loon Island and the resort community of Lucerne-in-Maine. Inland from the coast, the terrain is punctuated by significant elevations like Great Pond Mountain and Flying Moose Mountain, while the small settlement of East Holden Station serves as a reminder of earlier rail connections.
