2013 Map of Johnsburg

About this map

Johnsburg and Thurman serve as the primary nodes of settlement in this northern New York landscape, situated within the protective boundaries of the Adirondack Park Preserve. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridges, including Crane Mountain, Huckleberry Mountain, and Wolf Pond Mountain, which dictate the winding paths of the local road network. For those tracing family histories, the map identifies small, localized sites such as Bates Cem near Gobbler's Knob Farm and Russell Cem further south. Water systems are integral to the area's layout, with the Hudson River touching the northeastern corner while internal drainage is managed by a network of brooks and creeks, notably Glen Cr and Patterson Brook. The presence of Camp Dippikill and several remote ponds like Snowshoe Pond and Crane Mountain Pond indicates a land primarily utilized for conservation, recreation, and small-scale agriculture.
