2014 Map of Spencer Lake

About this map

Spencer Lake dominates this Somerset County landscape, a long water body fed by the Little Spencer Stream and Fish Pond. The area is defined by significant elevations, including the prominent Spencer Mtn and Hardscrabble Mtn, which overlook a network of remote ponds and brooks. To the northwest, Whipple Pond and Hall Pond sit at the headwaters of the drainage system, while King and Bartlett Lake marks the southwestern boundary. A series of forest roads, such as Spencer Rips Rd and Old Spencer Rd, trace the natural contours of the ridges, providing the primary access through this heavily timbered region. The distribution of small ponds like Chub Pond and Toby Pond suggests a glacial landscape where drainage patterns are dictated by the steep slopes of Hardwood Mtn and surrounding peaks.
