About this map

The confluence of the Kennebec River and the Dead River forms the geographical heart of this Somerset County survey, conducted just as the Somerset R. R. reached into this timber-rich wilderness. This era in the Maine North Woods was defined by the transition from river driving to rail transport, a shift evidenced by the presence of logging infrastructure like Squirtgun Dam and various unnamed Dam sites alongside the new tracks.
