2021 Map of Metallak Mountain

About this map

Metallak Mtn dominates the landscape of this northernmost reach of Coos County, where the terrain forms a sharp natural barrier between the United States and Canada. The US - Canada Border follows the high ridges and the winding course of Halls Stream, a waterway that serves as the primary drainage for numerous smaller tributaries flowing off the mountain slopes. Running parallel to the water, Halls Stream Rd provides the singular terrestrial link through this secluded timberland and mountain pass region. The map captures an intricate network of drainages including Robbers Brook, Graham Brook, and Abbott Brook, which carve the steep eastern face of the mountain. Just across the boundary, Canadian waterways like Rivière Malvina and Rivière Clifton highlight the trans-border geography of the high New England woods.
