2018 Map of Stratton

About this map

Stratton and Eustis anchor this northern Maine landscape, serving as hubs within a complex network of waterways and ridges. The North Branch Dead River and South Branch Dead River converge near the massive expanse of Flagstaff Lake, which dominates the eastern half of the map. Significant elevations rise to the southeast, where the peaks of Mt Bigelow and Cranberry Peak loom over the basin. Local history is etched into the terrain through sites like Eustis Cem and Flagstaff Cem, while the geography of Eustis Ridge provides a distinct overlook of the surrounding timberlands. Numerous brooks, such as Whiskey Brook, Trout Brook, and Cold Brook, drain from the higher elevations into the lake, illustrating the hydrological connection between the Bigelow Range and the Dead River drainage system.
