1954 Map of Big Moose

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The New York Central railroad serves as the primary artery through this interior section of the Adirondack State Park, connecting remote outposts such as Beaver River and Carter Station. The landscape is dominated by the Stillwater Reservoir and a complex network of waterways, including Lake Lila and Salmon Lake. This 1950s survey captures the region as a hub for wilderness recreation and timber transport, centered on settlements like Big Moose and Eagle Bay. Notable local landmarks like Camp Rondaxe and Woods Lake illustrate the seasonal and permanent habitation patterns established around the rail line and the Big Moose Road. Small settlements such as Brandreth and Norridgewock emphasize the isolation and specific utility of these points along the tracks, where the forest meets the emerging infrastructure of the mid-20th century.
