1966 Map of Oswegatchie

About this map

The Oswegatchie River dominates this portion of the Adirondack State Park, serving as the axis for both industrial development and early settlement. By the mid-1960s, the river’s power was harnessed at the Flat Rock Powerplant and Browns Fall Powerplant, while the Penn Central railroad tracks supported the heavy extraction operations at Benson Mines. This industrial infrastructure contrasts with the surrounding State Forest Preserve, where rugged terrain like Panther Mountain and Maple Mtn remained largely undeveloped.
