1986 Map of Shin Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Upper Shin Pond and its namesake settlement anchor this mid-1980s landscape in northern Penobscot County, where the wilderness of t6 r7 Wels and Patten meet. The map reveals a complex drainage system defined by the Seboeis River and numerous tributaries such as Shin Brook and Sucker Brook. This terrain is heavily influenced by glacial geography, evidenced by the cluster of water bodies including Lower Shin Pond, Davis Pond, and Ackley Pond tucked between prominent elevations. Dominating the eastern horizon is the massive profile of Mount Chase, while Sugarloaf Mountain and Peaked Mtn mark the western and southern boundaries. The limited road network and scattered Gravel Pit locations suggest a landscape primarily shaped by timber interests and seasonal recreation during this era.
