Mooselookmeguntic Lake

Mooselookmeguntic Lake is situated in the American state of Maine, Franklin County and Oxford County. It is a part of the watershed of the Androscoggin River. It is situated in the western region of Maine, close to the Canadian provinces of Quebec and New Hampshire. The Appalachian Trail is only a few miles away from the lake.

Water for Mooselookmeguntic Lake comes from a number of sources. The northern portion of Mooselookmeguntic Lake is directly connected to Cupsuptic Lake, which receives water from the Cupsuptic River. Both the Rangeley River and the Kennebago River empty into Mooselookmeguntic Lake in the northeast.

The lake's waters discharge into Upper Richardson Lake in the southeast. Between the two lakes, there is a structure called the "Upper Dam." The dam caused Cupsuptic Lake to merge with Mooselookmeguntic Lake, creating a reservoir, by raising the level of the latter by around 14 feet. Before the dam was constructed, the two lakes were distinct.
