About this map

The West Branch Penobscot River flows through a complex network of waterways in northern Maine, connecting Passamagamet Lake and the sprawling Twin Lakes system. This area is defined by its long-standing recreational and industrial history, evidenced by the presence of Ambajejus Camps and the historical Boom House, which speaks to the region's logging heritage along the river's path.

Navigational landmarks and isolated outposts dot the shoreline, from Stephensons Landing on the western reach to the Buckhorn Camps Seaplane Base near the center of the sheet. The landscape is characterized by numerous islands such as Moose Island, White Horse Island, and Sweet Potato Island, alongside narrow passages like Nicks Gut. This survey documents the intricate shoreline and wilderness infrastructure, including remote dwellings at Buckhorn Camps and prominent natural features like Passamagamet Falls and Lincoln Ridge.
