2018 Map of Diamond Pond

About this map

Upper Kidderville sits at the southern edge of this high-elevation landscape, where the E Br Mohawk River and W Br Mohawk River begin their descent. The area is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridges, including the strikingly named Sanguinary Mtn, Tumble Dick Mtn, and Van Dyck Mtn. Central to the terrain are Diamond Pond and Little Diamond Pond, which anchor a complex network of seasonal streams and mountain brooks such as Swift Diamond River and Sugar Hill Brook. Local travel is dictated by the ridgelines, with roads like Lost Nation Rd and Whipple Ridge Rd providing access to these upland stretches. The naming conventions, from Harvey Swell to Cave Mtn, reflect a long-standing local vernacular for the specific contours of the Coos County backcountry.
