2024 Map of Fish River Lake SW

About this map

The interior forests of Aroostook County are defined by a complex network of waterways and logging roads. Mud Pond sits as a central basin, feeding the North Branch Fox Brook, while the South Branch Fox Brook drains the terrain to the south. This landscape is shaped by the headwaters of numerous streams, including Smith Brook and Big Brook, which navigate through dense contour intervals that reveal the varied elevations of this timberland region. Human presence is primarily marked by W Side Echo Lake Rd, a vital artery for traversing the remote woods. The map also captures the Right Fork Twentymile Brook, illustrating the drainage patterns that have historically supported the North Maine Woods' forest products industry. This study of the Fish River Lake SW area serves as a primary reference for understanding the hydrological structure and access points within these managed forestlands.
