1989 Map of Soper Mountain

About this map

Allagash Wilderness State Waterway defines the character of this northern Maine landscape, protecting a vast network of interconnected lakes and rivers. Centered on Eagle Lake and the northern reaches of Chamberlain Lake, the map documents a remote interior focused on water-based travel and resource management. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade near the southern boundary provides evidence of earlier industrial activities, likely related to the timber trade that historically dominated this region. Numerous primitive sites such as Pillsbury Island Campsite and Thoreau Campsite are scattered along the shorelines, while prominent terrain features like Soper Mountain and Dunphy Ridge provide significant elevation above the valleys of Soper Brook and Bog Brook.
