About this map

McLean Mountain dominates the high ground of this Aroostook County landscape, serving as a primary drainage divide for a network of north-flowing brooks and streams. The settlement of Jones Mill sits near the foot of the mountain, adjacent to the waters of McLean Lake. This area of northern Maine is defined by its complex hydrology, where the Wallagrass Stream feeds into the Third Wallagrass Lake while the headwaters of the N Br Birch River and S Br Birch River carve through the timberlands to the south.

Industrial and transport access is traced through logging and forest roads like Hewes Brook Rd and Pelletier Lakes Rd, which provide the only significant terrestrial arteries through the dense topography. Small water features such as Gilbert Ponds and the secluded Deep Brook suggest a land primarily utilized for timber management and remote recreation, largely unchanged in its fundamental layout into the early 21st century.
