1970 Map of Caroga Lake
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Adirondack State Park dominates this landscape, characterized by a dense concentration of glacial lakes and prominent peaks in the southern Adirondacks. The settlement of Caroga Lake serves as a central hub between West Caroga Lake and East Caroga Lake, while smaller hamlets like Wheelerville and Bleecker Center dot the surrounding highlands. This 1970 revision captures the region's character as a recreational destination, featuring the Mohawk Pathway Camp and a local Golf Course. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of St Josephs Cem, St Johns Cem, and St Barbaras Chapel provides specific markers of early community life. The northern half of the map remains largely wild, punctuated by remote water bodies such as Duck Lake and County Line Lake, along with elevations like Panther Mtn and Pigeon Mtn that define the boundary between Arietta and Benson.
