About this map

The settlement of Bay Pond anchors this northern Adirondack landscape, situated at a junction of backcountry routes like Bay Pond Rd and Bay Pond Park. The area is defined by a complex network of glacial water bodies and the winding course of the Saint Regis River. High ground is marked by prominent landforms such as Buck Mountain, Brandon Hill, and Bay Pond Hill, which overlook a series of interconnected waters including Mud Pond, Bear Pond, and Black Pond.

South of the main settlement, the W Br Saint Regis River flows past Whitney Pond and Cranberry Pond, leading toward the southern heights of East Pond Mountain and Long Pond Mountain. This region is a study in undisturbed hydrography, featuring isolated ponds like Nellie Pond and Bessie Pond that remain accessible primarily via primitive roads such as Floodwood Rd. The topography here illustrates the transition from riverine lowlands to the elevated peaks that define this portion of Franklin County.
