About this map

Enfield and Passadumkeag sit at the intersection of powerful Maine waterways and quiet wooded ridges in this 2011 survey. The landscape is defined by the flow of the Penobscot River along the western edge, where large river features like Thorofare Island and Hog Island break the current. Further east, the Passadumkeag River meanders toward its confluence with the Penobscot, crossed by the Hathaway Bridge.

Water management and local industry are visible through features like the Cold Stream Pond Dam near the Cobb Hatchery and the Olamon Dam to the south. Local genealogy and history are preserved in the West End Cemetery and Sunny Slope Cemetery, which sit among a network of rural roads such as Goulds Ridge Rd and Old Commonwealth. This map captures the balance between the river-focused settlements and the higher ground of Roundy Ridge, illustrating how the drainage of Cold Stream and Ayers Brook shaped the development of Penobscot County.
