About this map

Big Moose Lake and the surrounding Adirondack wilderness define this mid-2010s landscape on the boundary of Herkimer and Hamilton counties. The settlements of Eagle Bay and Inlet serve as primary hubs at the south end of the sheet, connected by Eagle Creek Rd and Uncas Rd. The map illustrates a densely glaciated terrain characterized by a high concentration of water bodies including Dart Lake, Moss Lake, and the more remote Queer Lake and Pigeon Lake to the east.

Transportation corridors like Co Rd 1 and Big Moose Rd provide access to seasonal camps and points of interest such as Craig Point and Gull Rock Point. The topography is marked by prominent elevations like Cascade Mtn and Black Bear Mtn, while the North Branch Moose River meanders through the central valley. This survey documents the modern layout of private roads and trails, such as the Cascade Lake Trl, which are essential for navigating the complex shoreline and interior highlands of this recreation-heavy region.
