2016 Map of Old Forge

About this map

Old Forge and Thendara serve as the primary gateways to this Adirondack landscape, where the Middle Branch Moose River and North Branch Moose River converge. The settlement pattern is defined by its proximity to the Fulton Chain Lakes, with seasonal clusters like Mountain Lodge situated along the shores of Little Moose Lake. Higher elevations are marked by prominent peaks such as Bald Mtn, Sugarloaf Mtn, and McCauley Mtn, while the southern expanse remains a dense network of water bodies including Panther Lake and Nicks Lake. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies the Old Forge Cem and Riverview Cem, along with infrastructure like the Old Forge Airport. The intricate system of named roads and trails, such as Old Indian Trl and Bisby Rd, reflects the area's long-standing history as a center for outdoor recreation and wilderness access.
