1902 Map of Mt. Marcy

USGS Topo · Published 1905

About this map

The Adirondack Mountain Reserve dominates this high-peaks landscape, surveyed in the early 1890s when wilderness tourism began to take hold in Essex County. The map details a network of high-elevation water bodies, including the remote Lake Tear and the narrow Cascade Lakes, which sit between prominent summits like Gothic Mt. and Big Slide Mt.. This era shows the region before modern infrastructure, where travel was anchored by local outposts like Adirondack Lodge and the burgeoning settlement at Keene Valley.
