About this map

Gardner Lake and Long Lake dominate this glaciated landscape in Washington County, where a network of interconnected waterways defines the region's geography. The small settlements of Halls Mills and Chase Mills stand as historical anchors near the southern drainage of these basins. The terrain is a complex of wetlands and ridges, featuring landmarks like High Head and Ell Pt, with numerous secondary water bodies such as Orange Lake, Sunken Lake, and Indian Lake illustrating the water-rich environment.

Transportation is primarily supported by local routes like Gardner Lake Rd and Chases Mill Rd, connecting the scattered homesteads and logging access points. The presence of features such as Hobart Stream and Chase Mills Stream highlights the importance of these riparian corridors for local industry and drainage. This area reflects a classic Maine interior, where life and travel are dictated by the placement of massive freshwater lakes and their smaller satellite ponds.
