2023 Map of Cathead Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The West Branch Sacandaga River carves a deep valley through this Adirondack landscape, where the small settlements of Wells and Blackbridge mark the northern reaches of the terrain. The topography is dominated by numerous high peaks including Cathead Mountain, Wallace Mountain, and Three Ponds Mountain, reflecting the densely forested and steep character of Hamilton County. For hikers and outdoor historians, the iconic Northville-Placid Trl is clearly delineated as it winds past Grants Lake and toward Upper Benson. The map details a network of early river-access points and remote locations like Pumpkin Hollow and the State Campsite, illustrating the area's long-standing tradition of seasonal residency and wilderness recreation. This modern survey captures the enduring geography of the Sacandaga valley, showing how traditional travel corridors like W River Rd continue to follow the natural contours of the river banks.
