1902 Map of Mt. Marcy

USGS Topo · Published 1902

About this map

Mt. Marcy and the surrounding High Peaks dominate this 1902 survey of the central Adirondacks, capturing a moment when the region's recreation and conservation history was firmly taking root. The map identifies the expansive Adirondack Mountain Reserve and the legendary Adirondack Lodge, a primary gateway for mountaineers of the era. The topography detail reveals the complex drainage systems of the Opalescent River and West Br. Ausable River, alongside high-altitude features like Lake Tear. In the valleys, the established settlements of Keene Valley and Beede are shown as they existed at the turn of the century, providing a clear view of the early roads and trails such as Hunters Pass that first connected these mountain communities and wilderness lodges.
