2023 Map of Nehasane Lake

About this map

Nehasane Lake and the upper reaches of the Beaver River anchor this remote section of the Adirondack highlands, where the border between Herkimer Co and Hamilton Co cuts through a landscape defined by glacial ponds and prominent peaks. The map details a legacy of private estates and logging access, centered on the historic station points of Keepawa, Brandreth, and Partlow. These small settlements, once critical nodes for transport and wilderness management, are linked by a network of restricted routes including IP Access Rd and Thayer Lake Rd. From the waters of Stillwater Reservoir to the heights of Mount Electra and Albany Mountain, the topography reveals a complex drainage system fed by Andys Creek and Shingle Shanty Brook. The presence of Lake Lila at the northeastern corner further illustrates the region's character as a interconnected corridor of water and forest.
