About this map

Depot Lake and its surrounding northern wilderness define this 2014 survey along the international border in Aroostook County. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of waterways, where the winding Depot Stream feeds into the central lake, and smaller bodies like Cunliffe Pond and Linscott Pond occupy the depressions between ridges. To the north, the elevation rises sharply toward the summit of Depot Mountain, a prominent landmark in this corner of the state.

Evidence of local land management and travel appears in the forest road system, including the aptly named Depot Road and Larbie Blvd. The map captures the precise boundary line between the United States and Canada, illustrating how the political frontier intersects with natural drainage patterns like Cunliffe Brook and Ninemile Brook. This area represents a classic Maine woods environment where hydrology and timber-related infrastructure dictate the local geography.
