2023 Map of Bloomingdale

About this map

Bloomingdale and Vermontville serve as primary anchors in this high-altitude landscape where the Franklin and Essex county lines meet. The terrain is defined by a succession of peaks and ridges, including Big Haystack Mountain, Kate Mountain, and Shenes Ledge, while the lowlands are carved by the Saranac River and the winding course of Negro Brook. A legacy of regional transport is preserved in the D&H Railroad Trl, a corridor that once connected these Adirondack settlements to broader markets. Local history is deeply embedded in the land at Union Cem on Norman Ridge and Brookside Cem near the river. This modern survey reflects the continued protection of the Adirondack Park Preserve, showing how current infrastructure like NY Route 3 and Cold Brook Rd navigates the complex topography of the High Peaks region.
