About this map

Round Pond and the Allagash River dominate this wilderness landscape in northern Aroostook County. This mid-1980s survey captures the protected Allagash Wilderness State Waterway as it winds through undeveloped township lands including T 13 R 12 W E L S and T 14 R 12 W E L S. The river's path is marked by a series of rapids and widenings, most notably the Musquacook Deadwater where it meets Musquacook Brook beneath the shadow of Musquacook Mountain.

The map details an intricate drainage system feeding into the Allagash, including Henderson Brook, Schedule Brook, and Savage Brook. While largely devoid of permanent settlements, the presence of various Campsite locations along the riverbanks and a Gravel Pit near the western boundary reflects the area's dual role as a managed timber resource and a premier destination for backcountry river travel.
