About this map

Adirondack Park defines this landscape in Herkimer and Hamilton counties, where the South Branch and West Canada Creek meet near the settlement of Nobleboro. The topography is dominated by numerous high-elevation water bodies and vlys, including Twin Lakes, Mill Creek Lake, and Wells Vly. The geography of the late 20th century shows a remote forest environment punctuated by small mountain hamlets like Morehouseville and Wilmurt, connected by the West Canada Creek Road.

Notable summits such as McCauley Mountain, Bethune Mountain, and Fort Noble Mtn overlook a complex network of wetlands like Middle Branch Marsh and Frenchs Vly. A small Cem near Morehouseville provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing early families in this corner of the woods, while the boundary lines between the towns of Ohio and Morehouse track through the dense timber and river valleys.
