2018 Map of Twin Peaks

About this map

The United States and Canada border cuts across this high-country landscape, defined by the prominent Twin Peaks and a network of remote waterways. The terrain is a complex hydrologic divide where the headwaters of the Second East Branch Magalloway River and First East Branch Magalloway River emerge from high-elevation basins. These southern-flowing streams are contrasted by northern-flowing waters like Rivière Clinton and Rivière Arnold on the Canadian side of the boundary. Logging access is visible through the McKie Fork Bowmantown road and Deer Pond Rd, which provide the only major conduits into this timber-rich region. Scattered throughout the peaks are high-altitude water bodies, including the isolated Abbie Pond, Upper Black Pond, and Lower Black Pond, illustrating the drainage patterns of the northern Maine woods.
