2018 Map of East Lake

About this map

The international border between Canada and the United States bisects this remote reach of the Maine north woods, where the landscape is defined by vast waterways and the Saint John River watershed. The prominent East Lake stretches across the boundary, its waters shared by both nations in a region largely dominated by timberlands and hydrological features. On the American side, Little East Lake sits tucked into the southeastern corner, feeding into the Chimenticook Stream which meanders through the dense forest. Access to this isolated terrain is limited, primarily represented by E Lake Rd, which skirts the eastern shoreline of the lakes. To the north, the Ruisseau Pocwock flows through the Canadian territory, illustrating the trans-border nature of the drainage patterns in this wild, high-altitude corridor of Aroostook County.
