About this map

Gardner Pond and the surrounding wilderness of Aroostook County are defined by an intricate network of waterways and remote elevations. This northern Maine landscape, documented in the early 21st century, centers on the prominent heights of Gardner Mountain and Deboullie Mountain. These peaks overlook a series of glacial water bodies including Togue Pond, Galilee Pond, and the expansive Chase Ponds.

Evidence of local industry and access is visible at Wheelock Mill in the north, while a handful of vital back-country routes like St Francis Rd and Jacque Ouellet Rd provide passage through the dense terrain. The drainage of Big Brook and Togue Stream highlights a watershed nearly untouched by urban development, offering a rare view of the state's interior timberlands and sporting heritage as they remained into the modern era.
