THE Dead River Region of niaine has been but recently brought bef@re the notice of sportsmen, and, with the ex­ ception of sundry remarks in the " Forest and Stream," and a brief 1nention in " Farrar's Guide to the Androscog­ gin Lakes," little has ever been known, and still less written, of its many attractions; and, as would naturally be expected, the con1paratively few persons who have pene­ trated its wilds have been troubled· from the outset with contradictory advice as to the routes and best places to visit, and many have been deterred from going from a lack of reliable information. The need of a guide book and map was apparent not only for the benefit of the tourist, but also to aid the poor, hard-working men who had run themselves into debt in order to prepare accommodations for visitors, and as no one else seemed inclined to assume the task, the author decided to undertake it, and as a result of his labors now presents to the public this little volume, for which no literary claims are made, as the sole object has been to state in plain words such information as would be sought 12 INTRODUCTION. after by those desiring to visit the region. The author is indebted to Mr. M. S. Field of Boston, and to several residents of the region, for much of the information con­ tained in the book, and also for valuable assistance in the preparation of the map; and as his personal obser­ vation and experience furnish the rest of the knowledge, the readers can rely upon the statements herein con­ tained as being correct in every important detail. As it was necessary in describing a canoe trip through this region to Quebec to mention Megantic and Spider Lakes, Arnold and Chaudiere Rivers, which forin a part of the route, and as information is n1eagre concerning these neighboring Canadian waters (which possess many attractions for sportsn1en), a chapter has been devoted to their description. The success of the first issue of the book tempted the author to prepare a second revised and enlarged edition, which, in order that the reader n1ay 111ore clearly under­ stand the exact situation of the Dead River Region, con­ tains a brief description of the territory lying directly to the south, and well known as the Rangeley Lake Region. The third edition, corrected to date, and containing nu­ merous illustrations and a supple111entary map, is now respectfully subn1itted to the public. BosTOf, April 15, 1886. NOTICE. As many are aware, a disastrous gale swept across North­ ern Maine in Oct., 1883, and, by felling thousands of trees, did an immense amount of injury to the lumber business.

Although previous studies have been performed to determine the potential for hydropower development at existing and former dams in Maine, until now no analysis of the raw hydropower potential based on topographic and hydrologic conditions has been available. We feel that this level of analysis is necessary to fill the gap in our knowledge of indigenous hydropower potential.

  • Maine Lakes Report 2013
    Maine Lakes Report 2013 Dear Friends and Stewards of Maine Lakes, This report on the health of Maine lakes reflects the effort of more than 1,000 volunteer citizen scientists throughout Maine who monitored several hundred lake basins throughout the State in 2013. A growing number of VLMP lake monitors have been continuously active for multiple decades, and a few have been involved for most of the 43 years since the Maine Legislature officially authorized volunteer lake monitoring. Their work is a strong testament to the level of public commitment to Maine’s clear, clean lakes, and it is probably not coincidental that our lakes have remained as healthy as they have under the careful watch of these individuals. The Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program (VLMP) is believed to be the longest- standing statewide citizen lake monitoring program in America, having been formed at about the time of the passage of the historic Federal Clean Water Act in 1971. The Mission of the Maine Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program is to help protect Maine lakes through widespread citizen participation in the gathering and dissemination of credible scientific information pertaining to lake health. The VLMP trains, certifies and provides technical support to hundreds of volunteers who monitor a wide range of indicators of water quality, assess watershed health and function, and screen lakes for invasive aquatic plants and animals. In addition to being the primary source of lake data in the State of Maine, VLMP volunteers benefit their local lakes by playing key stewardship and leadership roles in their communities. Our primary partners are the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the US Environmental Protection Agency, which provide a wide range of financial, technical and management support to the program.

  • Appendices 32 ______
    APPENDIX 11.7: Information from Expert Interviews In September – December, 2003, as part of its ecoregional planning process, TNC organized a series of six meetings of regional experts to discuss the current status and historical aspects of Maine’s aquatic ecosystems. In conjunction with other databases, the information obtained during these meetings is being used to identify streams / rivers and lakes that appear to be of particular interest from the perspective of conservation planning. This Appendix summarizes much of the information obtained during the expert meetings; it also integrates additional information obtained by MABP via interviews with fisheries biologists, including the early phase of an “anecdotal information-capture” project started in 2004 by MDIFW and MABP. It is important to note that this Appendix is not intended as a comprehensive review of aquatic ecosystems in Maine and should be viewed as a supplement to other data presented in this report. Information in this Appendix inevitably reflects the areas of expertise of the individuals participating in the meetings, incorporating much “anecdotal”-type information that is often not adequately captured in traditional databases. The information content also reflects the need to cover large areas of the state in a limited amount of meeting time. Furthermore, the TNC meetings focused on medium-sized stream watersheds, in the range 30 – 1000 sq. miles. Smaller watersheds were not explicitly discussed during the meetings (although it is recognized that these are “embedded” in the larger watersheds). Large river watersheds (>1000 sq. miles) were also excluded from the discussion since these are automatically incorporated into the series of “focus” watersheds developed by TNC.

A-3 1 Geology of the Lower Paleozoic Rocks in the Boundary Mountain Anticlinorium By David S. Harwood .^John C. Greenland Charles V. Guidotti^ Introduction The Boundary Mountain anticlinorium (Albee, 1961) in northern New Hampshire, west-central Maine, and adjacent Quebec consists of a core of pre-Silurian rocks overlain to the northwest and southeast, respectively, by Silurian and Devonian rocks in the Connecticut Valley- Gaspd synclinorium (Cady, 1960) and the Merrimack synclinorium (Osberg, Moench, and Warner, 1968). This trip will examine the highlights of the stratigraphy, structure, and metamorphism of the rocks in the anti­ clinorium, beginning in the Silurian rocks on its southeast flank near Rangeley, Maine, and proceeding westward across its core to a synclinal inlier of Silurian rocks near Parmachenee Lake (fig.
