Caribou

Caribou straddles the Aroostook River in northern Maine, and its river-valley location has long connected the city with the farms of Aroostook County. Potato fields, mixed woodland and long winters give this small city a distinctly northern character, far from Maine’s Atlantic coast. Incorporated as a city in 1967, Caribou developed from a farming settlement into a service centre for the surrounding county. It is also home to the National Weather Service forecast office responsible for northern and eastern Maine, a fitting role where winter weather is part of daily life.
