Acadia Waterfall
Hadlock Brook, in Acadia National Park, is a small watershed that was monitored by the USGS from 1999 to 2006. The Hadlock Falls is a popular spot for a break on one of the many scenic trails through the park. The USGS gaging station was approximately 100 ft above the falls.

Under The Ice at Libby Brook
In February 2005 a visit to a USGS station on Libby Brook near Northfield, Maine revealed a gap between the water level and a layer of ice above. Cold temperatures after a rain event caused the ice layer to form and as water levels dropped the ice layer remained.
