1953 Map of Au Sable Forks
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
The Ausable River forms the industrial and social spine of this Adirondack region, where the junction of the West and East branches at Au Sable Forks serves as a primary hub for commerce and community life. In this mid-century landscape, the legacy of the local iron industry remains visible through labels for Ore Mines near Arnold Hill and the presence of charcoal-related sites like Soper Kiln and Seven Kiln. These features, alongside the concentrated settlements of Clintonville and Thomasville, illustrate a mountain economy transitioning from its heavy industrial roots toward recreation and conservation.
