About this map

Au Sable Forks serves as the central hub of this Adirondack region, situated at the confluence where the West Branch Ausable River and East Branch Ausable River join to form the main Ausable River. This 2012 survey illustrates a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and water-driven geography, with small settlements like Rome and North Jay hugging the river valleys. To the north, Fern Lake is a prominent water body featuring Stevens Landing and Beaver Point, while the surrounding terrain is marked by numerous peaks including Arnold Hill, Palmer Hill, and Ragged Mountain.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise locations of Holy Name Cemetery, Fairview Cemetery, and the North Jay Cemetery. The map also captures the local infrastructure connecting these dispersed communities, from the Stickney Bridge crossing the river to the winding course of Silver Lake Rd and Adirondack Park boundaries. The mix of residential clusters like Lake Eaton and Green Street alongside industrial-era markers such as Sawmill Rd reflects the long-standing relationship between the local population and the timber and water resources of the valley.
