About this map

The confluence of the Piscataquis River and the Penobscot River defines the southern portion of this landscape, near the settlement of Howland. The water system is dense with named islands, including Lowell Island, Doe Island, and Big Island, while further north the Penobscot River contains Gordon Island and Beatham Island. A large Dam is noted at the southern edge of the survey near the mouth of the Piscataquis.

Upland terrain to the north features the distinct glacial topography of Hoytville Horseback and the elevated reaches of Whitney Ridge and Carpenter Ridge. The small community of Seboeis sits along Seboeis Stream, connected by a network of local roads such as Maine Rd and Flynn Rd. In the northern portion of the map, South Branch Lake is a prominent feature, with its shoreline shaped by Nason Point and Townsend Point, providing a glimpse into the hydrography of central Penobscot County.
