About this map

The Mt Van Hoevenberg State Recreation Area stands as a central feature in this late-twentieth-century study of the High Peaks region, detailing the specialized infrastructure of the Bobsled Run, Luge Run, and Cross Country Stadium. This area, situated within the vast Adirondack Park, illustrates the intersection of international winter sports heritage and preserved wilderness. To the northwest, the John Brown Farm State Historic Site marks a significant cultural landmark near North Elba.

Settlements like Keene Valley and Saint Huberts are clustered along the East Branch Ausable River, while the high country is defined by massive peaks such as Gothics, Table Top Mtn, and Cascade Mtn. The map traces a network of backcountry markers, from the Ranger Headquarters Marcy Dam to remote water bodies like Lake Colden and Avalanche Lake, documenting the topography used by generations of hikers and climbers.
