About this map

Patten anchors this northern Maine landscape at the transition between Penobscot and Aroostook counties. The settlement pattern follows the drainages of Fish Stream and the Molunkus Stream, with concentrated hubs at Sherman Station and Sherman Mills. A surveyor’s Monument Line cuts west to east across the terrain, marking a formal boundary through dense wetlands like Blackwell Bog and the expansive Thousand Acre Bog. Evidence of the region’s timber and transport history is visible in the network of rail-aligned points such as Patten Junction. While much of the land is defined by water and forest, local industry is marked by scattered Gravel Pits and the uniquely named settlement of Siberia in the southwestern corner near Torrie Brook.
