  The East Branch Piscataquis River is a tributary of the Piscataquis River in Piscataquis County, Maine. From its source in Little Squaw (Maine Township 3, Range 5, BKP EKR), it runs south 14 miles (23 km) to its confluence with the West Branch Piscataquis River in Blanchard to form the Piscataquis.
  
  The Appalachian Trail crosses the East Branch just upstream from its joining with the West Branch.
