About this map

Jackson Summit sits at a high elevation within the Southern Adirondacks, anchoring a landscape defined by complex water systems and isolated mountain peaks. The map details the transition from the Hamilton Co line south into Fulton County, where the wilderness gives way to small rural clusters like Tomantown and Dennies Hollow. Water features are ubiquitous across the terrain, ranging from the broad reaches of Chase Lake and Mud Lake to the secluded Racker Vly and Lynus Vly.

Industry and local heritage are marked by the presence of Tannery Rd and the family history preserved at Bleecker Cem and Berry Cem. The topography is particularly steep around Steele Mtn and Bernhardt Mtn, with West Stony Creek and its various branches carving deep drainage paths through the highlands. Notable landmarks like Buttermilk Falls and Bellan Ledge suggest a landscape where water and rock define the local geography, even as small settlements like Lindsley Corners maintain their place along the winding rural road network.
