About this map

Adirondack Park land dominates this landscape, where the boundary between Herkimer and Hamilton counties bisects the central waters of Limekiln Lake. This terrain is defined by a dense network of high-elevation ponds and peaks, including Mount Tom and Higley Mountain. The northern reaches include portions of the Fulton Chain Lakes, specifically Fifth Lake, Sixth Lake, and Seventh Lake, the latter featuring Big Island.

Drainage patterns are complex, with Third Lake Creek and Lost Brook threading between named summits like Fawn Lake Mountain and Stink Lake Mountain. Human infrastructure is primarily limited to trails and access roads such as the Limekiln Loop Trl and 7th Lake Rd, which serve the recreational and conservation character of the region. The map preserves the names of numerous smaller water bodies, from Quiver Pond to the secluded Harry Ponds, illustrating the intricate hydrography of the Adirondack interior.
