The road leading to the southern Grand Lake Matagamon dam follows along with the river branch flowing south.

The town of Mount Chase backs up to Shin Pond Village, which is home to Lower Shin Pond and Upper Shin Pond. This spot just off the side of the road is a great place to view the lower pond, which is barely bigger than the upper pond.
