Maine

Maine's topography is characterized by a diverse range of landscapes, from its rugged coastline to its mountainous interiors. The state is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast, which features a mix of low-lying sandy beaches and rocky cliffs. Inland, the terrain transitions into rolling hills and flat plateaus, particularly prominent in the Aroostook County region known for its agricultural productivity. The western part of Maine is dominated by the Appalachian Mountains, including Mount Katahdin, the highest peak in the state at 5,267 feet (1,605 meters). This mountainous terrain is accompanied by a series of lakes, such as Moosehead and Sebago, and an extensive network of rivers and streams, adding to the intricate hydrology of the region. The average elevation of Maine is around 600 feet (183 meters), with significant variations throughout the state, showcasing a blend of coastal lowlands and elevated uplands that reflect the effects of glacial activity from the last ice age.
