1955 Map of Elizabethtown

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Adirondack iron industry and high-peak wilderness are documented in this 1955 survey of eastern Essex County. The industrial core is centered on Witherbee, Mineville, and the Fisher Hill Iron Mine, where mining infrastructure and local substations supported the extraction of ore from the surrounding mountains. To the west, the landscape shifts toward the high wilderness of the Adirondacks, dominated by the massive profile of Giant Mtn and Rocky Peak Ridge.
