Lake George dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its shoreline deeply recessed by Huddle Bay and Northwest Bay. The principal settlement of Bolton Landing serves as a lakeside hub, while the interior is marked by significant elevations like Cat Mountain and Federal Hill. To the west, the Schroon River meanders through a narrow valley, flanked by the settlement of Riverbank and Bull Rock Mountain. The map reveals a distribution of family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds including New Vermont Cemetery and Lamb Hill Cemetery. The complex geography of the lake is detailed through numerous islands such as Green Island, Sweetbriar Island, and Dome Island, reflecting a topography where steep ridges fall directly into the water's edge, creating sheltered coves like Basin Bay.
