1908 Map of Loon Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

The New York Central and Hudson River RR (Adirondack Division) and the Chateaugay and Lake Placid RR converge in this Franklin County landscape, marking an era of heavy rail dependence for both timber and tourism. The rail network supports vital depots at Mountain View Sta and Loon Lake Sta, providing access to the rugged Plumadore Range and the surrounding wilderness. Early transportation routes like the Port Kent and Hopkinton Turnpike cross the terrain, linking older sites like Walker Mill and the Inman PO. Settlement is concentrated around these corridors, with places like Chases, Hunter Home, and Merrillville serving as remote outposts. The hydrology is dominated by the Salmon River and numerous high-altitude ponds including Debar Pond and Wolf Pond, which define the natural character of the region within the Adirondack Park.
