2014 Map of Turner Pond

About this map

The Baker Branch Saint John River winds through the southwestern corner of this Somerset County landscape, anchoring a network of waterways in the North Maine Woods. In 2014, the area remains defined by its isolation and its role in the timber economy, evidenced by the presence of unpaved access routes like St Aurelie Rd and Turner Pond Rd. To the north and east, the terrain is shaped by the drainage of Saint Francis Brook, which feeds into Saint Francis Lake. Several minor watercourses, including Desolation Brook and N Br Campbell Brook, traverse the high ground. Small-scale features like Turner Pond and its namesake Turner Brook provide localized landmarks for those navigating these remote timberlands near the international border.
