2021 Map of Pelletier Brook Lakes

About this map

Upper Saint John River Valley defines the northern edge of this landscape, where the Saint John River flows past Cross Rock Rapids and Golden Rapids. This remote Aroostook County terrain is characterized by a chain of glacial lakes, including First Pelletier Brook Lake, Second Pelletier Brook Lake, and Third Pelletier Brook Lake. The presence of Jones Mill near the lake chain suggests the historical importance of the timber industry in this Maine interior. Access to these backwoods is indicated by seasonal routes such as Pelletier Brook Lakes Tote Rd and Negro Brook Lakes Tote Rd, which trace the drainage of Pelletier Brook. The map reveals a dense network of tributaries like Wiggins Brook and McLean Brook feeding the river system, reflecting the complex hydrology of the North Maine Woods.
