2024 Map of Ugh Lake

About this map

Ugh Lake and the dense network of tributaries that feed into the Allagash wilderness region define this modern landscape in northwestern Aroostook County. The terrain is characterized by a complex drainage system including Cunliffe Brook and Holmes Brook, which meander through a densely forested interior. While primarily a remote timber and water landscape, the area is accessible via a web of unpaved forest roads like Boulevard Rd and Realty Rd. These routes, along with Ugh Lake Rd, indicate the continued importance of active logging and land management in this portion of Maine. The map reveals how the modern road network follows the natural topography of the brook valleys, such as Agnes Pond Brook and Squirrel Brook, maintaining a pattern of remote land use that has persisted for generations.
