2016 Map of Number Four

About this map

The settlement of Number Four sits at the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the Adirondack Park Preserve protects a complex network of waterways and timberland. This area is defined by the winding course of the Independence River and its numerous tributaries, including Yellow Creek and the southern drainage of Crooked Creek. The terrain is punctuated by prominent elevations such as Mt Tom and Buck Mtn, while the hydrology is dominated by a dense collection of glacial ponds and lakes, from the large Beaver Lake and Francis Lake to the secluded Trout Pond and Panther Pond.
