Fulton Chain Lakes dominate the northern landscape of this Adirondack region, where the settlement of Old Forge serves as a primary gateway to the wilderness. The mid-century topography reveals a mix of recreational development and inaccessible terrain, with remote outposts like Bisby Lodge, Mountain Lodge, and Forest Lodge established deep within the forest. These locations, alongside Gahans Farm, suggest the early-to-mid 20th-century transition of the area from a working landscape to a premier outdoor destination.
