2019 Map of Cheney Pond

About this map

Adirondack Park land comprises this entire landscape, defined by a network of waterways that flow through the high elevations of Essex County. The Boreas River serves as the primary drainage, winding through the center of the area and collecting tributaries like Wolf Pond Brook and Vanderwhacker Brook. The map reveals a dense concentration of interior water bodies, including the centrally located Cheney Pond and the more secluded Wolf Pond to the northeast. Transportation is limited to a few arterial routes such as Co Hwy 28 and several local forest roads like Boreas Rd, highlighting the undeveloped, protected character of the terrain. Prominent summits like Boreas Mtn and Sand Pond Mtn anchor the high ground, while features like Washburn Ridge demonstrate the complex topographical relief characteristic of this mountain region.
