About this map

Umbagog Lake straddles the border between Coos County, New Hampshire and Oxford County, Maine, anchoring a landscape of glacial waters and high summits. The settlement of Upton sits on the eastern edge of the sheet, where Mill Hill Rd and Barnes Rd provide access to the surrounding hills. To the south and west, the terrain rises sharply toward Cambridge Black Mtn and Little Roundtop Mtn, forming a watershed that feeds into Mollidgewock Brook and Mollidgewock Pond.

Navigation through this timbered territory is defined by local routes such as Potter Farm Rd and Hampshire Hills Rd, alongside recreational paths like the Thurston's Cove Trail. The lake itself is dotted with named landforms including Metallak Island, Bear Island, and Tidswell Point, reflecting the long-established nomenclature of this northern borderland. The intricate shoreline at Sargent Cove and Thurston Cove illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the Hampshire Hills.
