About this map

Keeseville anchors the southwestern edge of this survey, where the Ausable River winds through the protected lands of the Adirondack Park. The landscape is defined by the dramatic geological descent toward Lake Champlain, featuring the famous sandstone cliffs of Ausable Chasm and the landmark Ausable Chasm Bridge. Along the shoreline, prominent features like Ausable Point and Trembleau Mtn overlook the waters, while offshore landforms such as Valcour Island and Schuyler Island mark the transition into Vermont.

Settlement patterns follow the river and lake, from the northern hamlet of Valcour down to the port at Port Kent. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including Blockhouse Cem, Baggs Cem, and the cluster of Saint Johns Cem, Evergreen Cem, and Immaculate Conception Cem near the town center. The industrial legacy of the region is suggested by places like Laphams Mills, situated along the Little Ausable River.
