About this map

The boundary between Hamilton Co and Warren Co bisects a landscape defined by high peaks and an intricate network of backcountry trails. Central to this area is Bullhead Mountain, surrounded by a cluster of named summits including Chimney Mountain, Puffer Mountain, and Hour Pond Mountain. The drainage patterns are particularly complex here, with waters feeding the East Branch Sacandaga River to the southeast and the Kunjamuk River to the southwest.

Remote water bodies like Thirteenth Lake, Kings Flow, and Buck Meadow Flow suggest a terrain where logging or traditional water management once shaped the local environment. An extensive trail system, including the West Puffer Pond Trl and John Pond Trl, provides the primary access to these interior peaks and basins, reflecting the area's modern identity as a core wilderness zone within the Adirondack region.
