2023 Map of North Osceola

About this map

The Salmon River and its intricate network of tributaries define this pocket of Lewis County, where the landscape is marked by the distinct logging and rail heritage of the New Campbellwood Wye and Old Campbellwood Wye. Settlement is concentrated at North Osceola and the edge of Osceola, connected by a network of local roads such as N Osceola Rd and Prince Brook Rd. The terrain rises toward Wards Hill in the north, while numerous named waterways like Stony Brook, Onemile Creek, and Keese Brook cut through the forest. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a remote northern New York environment where the hydrology of the West Fork Salmon River and East Fork Salmon River remains the primary geographical feature, and local place names like Mulligan Brook and Fall Brook provide essential markers for genealogists and researchers tracking family land in the Tug Hill region.
