2021 Map of Allagash Pond

About this map

Maple Ridge rises above the timberlands of northern Maine, marking a prominent upland between the headwaters of several critical North Woods waterways. The terrain is defined by its complex drainage patterns, where Allagash Stream and its tributaries, including W Br Allagash Stream and Middle Br Allagash Stream, flow through a landscape of remote ponds and brooks. The western edge of the expansive Chemquasabamticook Lake appears on the eastern boundary, fed by Ross Inlet and its northern branch. This area, straddling the Somerset and Piscataquis county line, remains dominated by forestry operations rather than permanent settlements. Primitive routes like Boise Cascade Rd and Cyr Rd provide the only land access to secluded water bodies like Allagash Pond and Corner Pond, illustrating the persistent wild character of this region deep within the Maine interior.
