2011 Map of Saint Croix Lake

About this map

Saint Croix Lake serves as the central anchor for this remote section of Aroostook County, where the settlement of Howe Brook sits at the northern end of the water. The landscape is defined by its extensive drainage network, including Saint Croix Stream and Smith Brook, alongside notable elevations such as Howe Brook Mountain and Nighthawk Mountain. The presence of Weeksboro and Little Canada suggests small pockets of habitation tied to the historic logging and rail infrastructure of Northern Maine. Local roads and transit routes like Harvey Siding Rd and the Mud Lake Tote Rd provide access through the timberlands, connecting these isolated outposts with the surrounding ridges. Genealogists and historians can trace the traditional pathways and seasonal settlements that characterized this interior wilderness in the early 21st century.
