1968 Map of Lake Luzerne

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Hudson River carves a deep valley through the southeastern edge of Adirondack State Park, serving as the primary corridor for both the Delaware and Hudson railroad and local settlement. The village of Hadley sits at the confluence with the Sacandaga River, directly across from the town of Lake Luzerne. This 1968 survey reveals a landscape of high summits and seasonal water bodies, where the Luzerne Mountains dominate the east and West Mountian rises toward the south. Local history is recorded in several small cemeteries, including the Old Methodist Cem and Leavens Cem, while industry is represented by numerous Gravel Pits and the active rail lines. The terrain transitions from the open waters of Fourth Lake and Lake Vanare in the north to the sprawling Ninemile Swamp in the south, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the upper Hudson region.
