2014 Map of Penobscot Farm

About this map

Penobscot Farm sits at the heart of this North Maine Woods landscape, positioned where several historic timber and access routes converge. The terrain is dominated by the winding course of the West Branch Penobscot River, which flows through a network of significant waterways including the slow-moving Cassidy Deadwater and the southern reaches of Lobster Lake. The map details an extensive network of logging roads that underscore the region's industrial heritage, most notably the prominent east-west artery of the Golden Rd and its intersections with Ragmuff Rd and Poulin Rd. Toward the southeast, the landscape transitions into the smaller hydrological systems of Little Lobster Lake and Little Lobster Stream, while Lobster Stream provides a central corridor through the township. This survey illustrates the modern configuration of a working forest landscape where the traditional river-driven economy has been replaced by the heavy-duty road networks necessary for contemporary timber operations.
