About this map

Round Mtn anchors a landscape of the North Maine Woods, where the borders of Aroostook and Piscataquis counties meet. This mid-1980s survey documents a timber-driven geography of township lines and unpaved access roads, including portions of T 11 R 9 Wels, T 11 R 8 Wels, and T 10 R 9 Wels. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks, from Peaked Mtn and Middle Mtn to the southern elevations of Center Mtn and Spectacle Mtn.

Waterways are central to the region's character, with Rowe Lake in the north and a network of drainages such as Chase Brook, Lovejoy Brook, and Ingalls Brook cutting through the ridges. Named ponds like Weeks Pond, Bartlett Pond, and Leopard Pond are scattered throughout the interior, while a solitary Gravel Pit indicates the practical infrastructure required to maintain the remote road network of this undeveloped backcountry.
