2013 Map of Copper Lake

About this map

The Adirondack Park Preserve defines this landscape in Herkimer County, showing a complex network of waterways and remote ponds as they appeared in 2013. The map is centered on an intricate drainage system where Otter Cr and Fish Cr meander through the protected forest. This area is characterized by its glacial topography, featuring numerous small bodies of water such as West Pine Pond, Pine Lake, and the namesake Copper Lake. While the terrain is largely undeveloped, a few primary access points are visible, including Partridgeville Rd in the north and Abbey Rd to the southwest. These corridors provide the only significant land-based navigation through a territory otherwise dominated by names like Drunkard Cr and Tommy Roaring Cr, illustrating the rugged, water-heavy character of this portion of the Adirondacks.
