About this map

The Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds through the high ridges of Little Bigelow Mountain in this 1989 topographic survey. The landscape is dominated by the expansive waters of Flagstaff Lake, which is regulated by the Flagstaff Dam near Long Falls. This region of Somerset and Franklin counties reflects a transition from industrial water management to recreational preservation, evidenced by the scattered Campsites and a Boat Ramp along the shoreline.

North of the main lake, the Dead River flows through deep township divisions like Pierce Pond (T 2 R 4 B K P W K R). Local infrastructure such as the Dead River Fish Hatchery and several Gravel Pits indicate the utility of the river system. Notable peaks including Blanchard Mountain and Roundtop Mtn frame numerous interior water bodies like Spring Lake and West Carry Pond, which are interconnected by a network of streams and brook systems.
