About this map

One Thousand Acre Heath and the winding course of the Passadumkeag River dominate this portion of Penobscot County. The landscape is a complex network of wetlands and upland ridges, where the river creates a massive natural feature known as The Oxbow south of Rand Hill. This survey captures the intricate drainage patterns of the Maine woods, showing how Bartlett Stream and Taylor Brook feed into the larger river system.

Upland features such as Connecticut Ridge, Oak Mtn, and Lombard Mtn rise above the surrounding bogs and ponds, including Weir Pond and Lombard Lake. A network of logging and local roads like Ghost Rd, Dirty Glove Rd, and Moosehorn Bend provides a glimpse into the seasonal use and navigation of this timber-rich environment. The presence of Upper Sysladobsis Lake on the eastern edge marks a significant water body in this sparsely settled region.
