2018 Map of Baker Lake

About this map

Baker Lake and the meandering Baker Branch Saint John River dominate this remote Somerset County landscape in 2018. The map detail highlights a rugged timberland infrastructure, where a network of logging and access roads like Saint Aurelie Rd, Baker Lake Rd, and Gilbert Rd snake through the drainage basins of Brailey Brook and Turner Brook. This region of T7 R17 WELS is defined by its lack of permanent settlements, focused instead on the hydrography of the Saint John River's upper reaches and the forestry routes that connect this borderland territory. The contour data and wetland markings illustrate the complex transition from high ridges to the saturated lowlands surrounding the northern end of the lake.
