Ripogenus Gorge
Ripogenus Gorge is a rock-walled canyon formed in Maine where the West Branch Penobscot River intersects the Caribou Lake anticline. Ripogenus Falls controlled discharge from Ripogenus Lake until Ripogenus Dam was completed at the upstream end of the gorge in 1916.| Tap on a place to explore it |
