1997 Map of Harrisburg

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Harrisburg and the surrounding high-country terrain of the Adirondacks are meticulously charted in this late-20th-century survey. The landscape is defined by the Adirondack Park State Forest Preserve and its complex hydrology, featuring the Sacandaga River to the west and East Stony Creek winding through the center. Small settlements like Bakertown, Fullers, and Knowelhurst appear as isolated clusters of human activity amid a sea of named peaks and ridges, such as Wilcox Mountain and Smith Mountain. The mapping reveals the specific local character of the woods, including Girards Sugarbush and Pine Orchard. Several remote water bodies like Wilcox Lake and Harrisburg Lake provide clear focal points for the drainage basins of Mud Creek and Jimmy Creek, while features like Auger Falls highlight the rapid elevation changes inherent in this portion of the State Forest Preserve.
