About this map

The St. Francis River forms a liquid international boundary between Maine and Canada, anchoring this northern forest landscape. This remote stretch of Aroostook County is defined by its significant water bodies, notably Beau Lake in the north and the transition through Cross Lake Rapids into Cross Lake further south. The terrain is marked by steep ridges and drainages like Yankeetuladi Brook, which feeds from Yankeetuladi Pond toward the international line.

While largely undeveloped, the area’s timber and recreation access is evidenced by a network of logging and access roads, including Landry Rd and Red Camp Rd. These routes represent the primary human imprint on a territory where the natural contours of the river valley dictate the geography of the border. This map provides a detailed look at the hydrology of the upper Saint John River watershed before the waters flow deeper into the North Woods.
