2011 Map of Penobscot Lake

About this map

Penobscot Lake and Long Pond dominate this remote northern landscape near the international border, where water management is defined by structures like the Penobscot Lake Dam and Long Pond Dam. The area is characterized by a dense network of glacial ponds and drainages, including Dole Pond at the northern edge and the complex of Dingley Pond, Upper Dingley Pond, and Little Dingley Pond to the west. Human activity is sparse, marked primarily by the Old Boundary Rd and a handful of local access routes that navigate around features such as Lizzies Bog and the winding Penobscot Brook. This map provides a detailed view of the hydrology and terrain at the boundary of Maine and Quebec in the early twenty-first century, useful for understanding the connectivity of these remote headwaters.
