2013 Map of Hope Falls

About this map

The Sacandaga River and E Stony Cr define the hydrological character of this portion of the Adirondack Park Preserve, where small settlements like Hope and Hope Falls persist along the valley floors. The landscape is punctuated by numerous summits, including Scribner Mtn and Mason Hill, reflecting the complex topography of the southern Adirondacks. Local history is anchored by the Wadsworth Cem and Willard Cem, while road names like Tannery Rd hint at the area's former industrial activities. Water management and recreation are evident in the presence of the Northville Reservoir and numerous high-country lakes such as Murphy Lake and Bennett Lake. The proximity of Maple Grove near the reservoir suggests a transition from the forested heights to more settled lower elevations.
