2021 Map of Allagash Lake

About this map

Allagash Lake dominates this northern Maine wilderness, situated within a complex network of glacial ponds and streams. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Poland Mtn and Allagash Mtn, which overlook a series of smaller water bodies including Mountain Pond and Upper Ellis Pond. The drainage pattern is driven by Allagash Stream and its various tributaries like S Br Allagash Stream and Wadleigh Stream, illustrating the hydrologic connectivity of the Maine North Woods. Human presence is limited to a sparse network of unpaved forest routes, such as Narrow Pond Rd and Pingree Rd, which reflect the area's long-standing use for timber management and remote recreation. This survey provides a clear view of the land before further contemporary development, marking the traditional portage and waterway routes that have long served this part of Piscataquis County.
