2011 Map of Twin Peaks

About this map

Twin Peaks rises as the central topographic landmark in this borderland region between Maine and Quebec, where the drainage systems of the Magalloway River begin their descent. The landscape is defined by its complex network of high-elevation water bodies and winding brooks, including the isolated Abbie Pond and Deer Pond. The 2011 survey documents the headwaters of the Second East Branch Magalloway River and the First East Branch Magalloway River, which draw from the slopes surrounding Upper Black Pond and Lower Black Pond. This area remains largely undeveloped, characterized by logging roads and significant stream forks like McKie Fork and Gold Brook. The map captures the precise hydrography of the Northern Forest at the start of the 21st century, providing a clear record of the seasonal watercourses and remote pond systems that shape this international boundary area.
