About this map

Allagash Lake dominates this wilderness landscape in Northern Maine, its shoreline shaped by the surrounding peaks of Allagash Mtn and Poland Mtn. The hydrology of the region is defined by the Allagash Stream, which feeds into the lake alongside numerous tributaries including Mountain Brook and Wadleigh Stream.

Remote timberlands and glacial terrain are evidenced by features like Narrow Ridge and a network of interior ponds such as Johnson Pond, Poland Pond, and the Upper Ellis Pond complex. Access to this undeveloped territory in the early 21st century remained limited to a sparse grid of forest roads, including Narrow Pond Rd and Ledge Rd, which serve as the primary land routes through the North Maine Woods.
