About this map

Tomah Ridge and its network of glacial water bodies define this interior portion of Washington County. This modern survey illustrates the intricate drainage patterns of Tomah Stream and Kennebec Brook as they feed into the northern reaches of Big Lake. The map details a landscape primarily managed for timber and recreation, where remote access is maintained via routes like Telephone Rd and Enoch Brook Rd.

Genealogical and local history interest is anchored at Lamb Place near the southern shoreline, while named landforms such as Scow Point, Birch Point, and the offshore Black Cat Island provide specific points of reference for those researching old camp sites or family holdings along the lakefront. The northern portion of the map is dominated by wetlands surrounding Enoch Lake and the various branches of Enoch Brook, highlighting the persistent wild character of the Maine woods.
