There is no ominous story behind the name "Dead River". In fact, the prevailing thought is that it was given the name due to the fact that the water is very flat as the river makes its way towards its end in the Adroscoggin River. Though short the river is a popular recreation destination.

This small town got its start as an agricultural hun, noted especially for its apple orchards. Though the orchards are still producing these days the town is more often visited for its location on the northern shore of Cobbosseecontee Lake.

Cobbosseecontee Lake, which means "plenty of sturgeon" in Wabanaki, is made up of a number of island, jettys, and glacial coves. Home to the Ladies Delight Light, which is the only inland lighthouse in Maine, Cobbosseecontee is a popular destination for all sorts of outdoor recreation.

This public footbridge was built in the early 1900s with a toll of 1 cent. After less than a year the original bridge was destroyed in a flood and subsequently rebuilt. The toll was also raised to 2 cents, which is where the common name comes from though the official name is still Ticonic Footbridge. These days there is no toll to cross the bridge, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.

Pond Road runs for several miles between Flying Pond and Desert Pond, passing several other lakes and ponds along the way. It's a relaxing place to go for a ride though some stretches are narrow, so be aware of passing cars.
