1966 Map of Conklingville

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Sacandaga Reservoir dominates the landscape of Saratoga County in this mid-1960s survey, representing a significant engineered transformation of the upper Sacandaga River valley. The map centers on the Conklingville Dam, the critical infrastructure that created the reservoir to control flooding downstream on the Hudson River. This engineering feat redefined the geography of the surrounding towns of Day, Edinburg, Hadley, and Corinth, flooding old valley floors and creating new shorelines along the base of peaks like Woodcock Mountain and Waite Mtn. Small settlements such as Conklingville, Allentown, and Overlook appear as established communities on the periphery of the high-water line. To the south, a cluster of smaller natural water bodies, including Efner Lake, Jenny Lake, and Hunt Lake, offer a contrast to the massive scale of the man-made reservoir. This survey documents the area as a developed recreation and water-management hub within the Adirondack State Park.
