1904 Map of Long Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1932

About this map

Raquette River meanders through this portion of the Adirondacks, connecting a vast network of water bodies during the early twentieth century. The map illustrates a landscape transitioning from remote wilderness to a seasonal retreat and industrial transport hub, anchored by the development at Tupper Lake. In the north, the convergence of the New York and Ottawa R. R. and the N. Y. C. And H. R. R. R. at Tupper Lake Junc. highlights the importance of rail in reaching these mountain outposts. Local history is etched into the landscape through labels for Rustic Lodge, the Caughnawauga Club, and Island House on Long Lake, which speak to the area's early tourism and private club era. Extensive pond systems, including Follensby Pond and the Hedgehog Ponds, remain largely undeveloped, while names like Litchfields and Moody identify early residential and commercial clusters near the water's edge.
