About this map

Musquacook Stream flows through this remote timber-and-water corridor of northern Maine, connecting a chain of significant water bodies including Third Musquacook Lake and the northern reaches of Fourth Musquacook Lake. The landscape is defined by the industrial forestry infrastructure of the late 20th century, notably the American Realty Road and various private spurs that traverse the township boundaries of T11 R12 and T11 R11 WELS.

Relief is most pronounced at Clear Lake Mountain, which overlooks the eastern shore of Clear Lake. This 1986 edition provides a detailed look at the hydrology of the Aroostook and Piscataquis county line, where Beaver Brook, Glazier Brook, and Bog Brook drain into the central stream system. Local activity is further marked by a Shale Pit near the northern border, reflecting the ongoing maintenance of the essential haul road network in this unorganized territory.
