About this map

Scraggly Lake and the interconnected waters of Junior Lake and Pleasant Lake dominate this 1980s landscape at the border of Penobscot and Washington counties. The region is defined by its glacial hydrology, where Junior Stream and numerous smaller flows like Rainey Brook link a series of named ponds and basins. Elevations range from the shoreline coves to prominent heights such as Penobscot Bald Mtn and Whitney Cove Mtn.

Resource extraction and seasonal recreation appear as the primary human imprints. Gravel pits and a Sand & Gravel Pit are noted near the southern reaches, while the presence of the Scraggly Island Campsite and other designated campsites indicates a transition toward wilderness leisure. This survey also records the administrative legacy of the Maine public lands system, including Carroll Plt and various numbered townships like Kossuth.
