About this map

The Allagash Wilderness Waterway anchors this interior landscape, following a chain of major water bodies that include Chamberlain Lake and Telos Lake. During the late twentieth century, this region remained a critical corridor for backcountry recreation and water management, evidenced by the cluster of specialized sites such as the Ranger Station and the Boy Scout Campsite near the Round Pond thoroughfare.

Land management is characterized by the complex township and range system, with boundaries like T 6 R 11 Wels dividing the timberlands. Cultural and industrial markers are sparse but significant, featuring the Telos Dam at the southeastern edge of the lake and a small Shale Pit to the north. Smaller, isolated water features like Midnight Pond and Coffeelos Pond highlight the intricate drainage patterns of the Maine woods, while Telos Mtn provides a clear landmark overlooking Telos Str.
