About this map

The Adirondack Park Preserve defines this landscape in Hamilton County, where the Kunjamuk River winds through a high-elevation valley before joining the Sacandaga River near Kunjamuk Bay. The geography is dominated by a series of named peaks and ridges, including Floodwood Mtn, Dug Mtn, and Oak Mtn, interspersed with smaller water bodies like Elm Lake and the Dug Mountain Ponds.

Tracing the waterways reveals dramatic vertical drops at Christine Falls and Austin Falls, as well as the turbulent stretch of the Sacandaga known as The Rifts. Access is provided by a network of seasonal and backcountry roads such as Wolf Hill Rd and Elm Lake Rd, which connect the scattered lakes and trails. This map captures the territory as it appeared in the early 21st century, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of Shingle Brook and Cisco Brook as they feed the central river system.
