2023 Map of Sears Pond

About this map

Sears Pond and the surrounding Lewis County uplands are defined by a complex network of waterways feeding the Deer River and Mad River systems. This landscape is characterized by its numerous branches and creeks, such as North Branch Mad River and the West Branch Deer River, which weave through the terrain between small settlements like Hooker and Monteola. The presence of Railroad Bed Rd indicates the area's historical connection to regional transit and resource extraction, while local routes like Salmon River Rd and Sears Pond Rd provide access to the remote ponds and brooks. For the researcher, the map preserves the exact locations of older hamlets like Parkers and family-named landmarks like Tom Sawyer Trl, offering a detailed view of the rural landscape in the twenty-first century.
