About this map

Nash Stream Forest and several township boundaries define this corner of Coos County, including the intersection of Odell, Millsfield, Dummer, and Stark. The settlement of Paris is situated near the Upper Ammonoosuc River, serving as a focal point for the surrounding highlands. The topography is dominated by significant elevations such as Long Mountain and Whitcomb Mountain, which channel numerous waterways including Phillips Brook and West Branch.

Water resources are abundant throughout the region, characterized by high-altitude features like Trio Ponds and Dummer Ponds. In the southeastern corner, the Pontook Reservoir indicates the management of the river system. The landscape's configuration of ponds and brooks, such as Pike Pond and Island Brook, suggests a geography historically shaped by timber and water power interests common to Northern New Hampshire.
