1968 Map of North Creek
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Hudson River carves a deep valley through the rugged topography of Adirondack State Park, serving as the primary corridor for both the Delaware and Hudson railroad and the region's early settlements. In the late 1960s, the village of North Creek serves as a local hub, featuring the Central School and the Bennett Landing Strip. The surrounding landscape is defined by significant elevations like Oven Mountain and Henderson Mtn, with smaller hamlets such as Wevertown and Sodom situated along the winding mountain roads. The map reveals a high density of named water bodies, including Antler Lake, Waldron Pond, and Hidden Lake, which illustrate the drainage patterns of the Johnsburg and Chester townships. This 1968 field-checked record captures the area before modern development, preserving the location of family cemeteries and remote mountain passes like Byrnes Corners.
