2013 Map of Morehouse Lake

About this map

Powley Place and Oregon stand as the primary human outposts in this dense landscape of the southern Adirondack wilderness. The 2013 topography reveals a complex network of glacial lakes and mountainous terrain, where Morehouse Lake and Jerseyfield Lake anchor a region defined by high-elevation water bodies and steep ridges. The drainage patterns are dominated by the W Br E Canada Cr and its tributaries, including the aptly named Goldmine Stream, which winds past Big Goldmine Hill and Little Goldmine Hill. This area is characterized by evocative local nomenclature, from the height of Dead Horse Mtn to the secluded waters of Blind Mans Vly and Black Cat Outlet. The map provides a detailed view of the remote road network connecting these points, specifically Piseco Rd and Powley Rd, which serve as the lifelines through the dense forest of Jerseyfield Mtn and Sugarbush Mtn.
