Course
From its source (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.) in Maine Township 7, Range 11, WELS, in Piscataquis County, the river runs 17 miles (27 km)[1] southeast through the North Maine Woods to Grand Lake Matagamon reservoir, in the northeast corner of Baxter State Park. From Grand Lake Dam, the river runs 48 miles (77 km)[1] south to its confluence with the West Branch Penobscot River in Medway, Penobscot County.
Matagamon Lake
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Grand Lake Matagamon or Matagamon Lake is a reservoir on the East Branch, impounded by Grand Lake Dam. The dam was built at the outlet of First Lake, and flooded vast expanses of low-lying land extending upstream to include Second Lake.
The shallow water habitat created by the dam is more suitable for yellow perch, fallfish, and longnose sucker rather than for trout.[4]
