About this map

Sebec Lake dominates the southern landscape of this Piscataquis County region, where the wooded terrain of Bowerbank and Barnard Plt meets the water. The shoreline is marked by early-settled points and docks such as Steadman Landing, Parson Landing, and Greeleys Landing, reflecting a history of lake-based transit and recreation. Further north, the landscape transitions into a network of smaller water bodies and wetlands, including Buttermilk Pond and the extensive Lyford Swamp.

Evidence of local industry and topography is seen in the Quarry located near Pickerel Brook and named elevations like Levansaller Hill and Ben Chase Hill. The presence of Dexter Mill Pond near the Williamsburg township line suggests earlier water-powered operations in this heavily forested area. This map preserves the 1980s configuration of rural settlements like Barnard before later development or landscape changes altered these North Woods communities.
