About this map

Flagstaff Lake dominates this mountain landscape at the boundary of Somerset and Franklin Counties. The map reveals the dramatic elevation changes of the Longfellow Mountains, from the shoreline of the lake up to the high ridges of Little Bigelow Mountain. A critical piece of the nation's hiking history, the Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle, crossing ridges near Safford Brook and Jerome Brook.

North of the lake, the topography rises toward Blanchard Mtn and Hedgehog Mtn, while the Dead River flows through the northern valley. The Flagstaff Cem remains a significant cultural landmark on the northern shore, preserving local history near the Dead River Rd. The area is characterized by an extensive network of woods roads, including Carrying Place Rd and N Flagstaff Rd, and numerous water bodies such as Spring Lake and W Carry Pond.
