2024 Map of Telos Lake

About this map

The Allagash Wild and Scenic River corridor dominates this northern Maine landscape, serving as a critical link in the historic North Woods waterway system. Centered on the connection between Chamberlain Lake and Telos Lake, the map documents a terrain defined by glacial ponds and timber-industry infrastructure. The Arm of Chamberlain reaches toward the south, where the local elevation is anchored by Telos Mtn. Access to these remote waters is limited to primitive forest routes such as Telos Rd, Nugents Camp Rd, and Umbazookus Rd. These roads trace the same paths used for generations by loggers and backcountry guides. Small, isolated water bodies like Coffeelos Pond, Imlos Pond, and Midnight Pond dot the drainage basins, illustrating the complex hydrology that made this region famous for nineteenth-century log drives and contemporary wilderness recreation.
