About this map

Sebec Lake anchors the southern portion of this Piscataquis County landscape, where the small settlement of Bowerbank sits along the northern shore. This contemporary survey shows a transition from the lakeside community, complete with the Bowerbank Community Cem, to a more isolated interior of the Maine woods to the north. The terrain is defined by numerous small water bodies and marshes, including Buttermilk Pond, Burden Pond, and Lamont Ponds, connected by watercourses like Buttermilk Brook and Beaver Brook.

To the north, the small community of Barnard marks the edge of the more developed areas, giving way to significant peaks like Levansaller Hill and Crocket Hill. The road network is largely centered around the lake and access to the interior ponds, with named routes such as Pickerel River Rd and Barnard Rd providing passage through the dense forest and around expansive wetlands like Lyford Swamp and Long Bog.
