2018 Map of Schoolhouse Rapids

About this map

The Saint John River forms the central artery of this northern Maine wilderness, cutting through the remote townships of t17 r13 and t16 r13 Wels. This survey highlights a critical section of the waterway defined by notable river features such as Schoolhouse Rapids and Longs Rapids. The surrounding landscape is a complex drainage network where Pocwock Stream, Chimenticook Stream, and Ouellette Brook converge toward the river valley. Evidence of the region’s timber and transit history is found in the simple road network, including Old River Rd and Fox Brook Rd, which trace the high ground above the wetlands. The map provides a look at the unorganized territory's geography, from the Township Line to the numerous feeder streams like Brown Brook and E Br Pocwock Stream that drain the high ridges.
