2023 Map of Dun Brook Mountain

About this map

Adirondack Park Preserve lands dominate this central Adirondack landscape, where the border between Hamilton and Essex counties cuts diagonally across the peaks. The terrain is defined by the high elevations of the Fishing Brook Range, including Dun Brook Mountain and Fishing Brook Mountain. Water shapes the lowlands, from the Essex Chain Lakes and Catlin Lake in the east to the remote Tirrel Pond and Wolf Pond to the south. Modern trail networks like the Northville Lake Placid Trl and the Deer Pond Loop Trl provide access through the dense forests, following the natural corridors established by the West Branch Goodnow River and numerous mountain brooks. This contemporary survey highlights the protected status of the wilderness, marking a landscape largely preserved from development and oriented toward back-country recreation.
