2021 Map of Fish River Lake

About this map

Fish River Lake dominates the eastern portion of this Aroostook County landscape, characterized by its intricate shoreline and prominent islands like Zella Island and Blueberry Island. This remote interior region is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the westward-reaching Smith Brook and the southern drainage of Clayton Stream and Carr Pond Stream. The topography rises into distinct elevations such as North Ridge and Sheldon Ridge, which overlook the basin's wetlands and smaller bodies like Mud Pond. While largely uninhabited by large settlements, the presence of Wilderness Rd, Fred Beck's Camp Rd, and Moose Point Rd indicates the area's continued importance for seasonal access and recreational use. The map captures the complex hydrography of the Fish River system, showing how N Br Fox Brook and S Br Fox Brook converge to form Fox Brook as it feeds into the lake.
