1999 Map of Lake Placid
USGS Topo · Published 2001About this map
The village of Lake Placid serves as the hub of this mountainous landscape within Adirondack Park, where winter sports infrastructure sits alongside significant historical sites. Near the Chubb River, researchers can find the John Brown Farm State Historic Site and the John Brown Grave, marking the final resting place of the noted abolitionist. The built environment reflects the area's legacy as a host for international athletics, featuring the Olympic Arena, Olympic Ice Shed, and the Olympic Ski Jumps with its 90-meter and 70-meter structures. Beyond the village, the terrain is defined by the West Branch Ausable River carving through the Wilmington Range and Sentinel Mountain. The map detail extends to the northern reaches of Whiteface Mountain, including the Whiteface Mountain Ski Center, while capturing local institutions such as the Northwood School and Placid Memorial Hospital.
