1968 Map of Owls Head

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Owls Head stands as a focal point in this 1960s landscape, where the northern edge of the Adirondack State Park meets the pastoral and timbered highlands of Franklin County. The area is defined by its deep connectivity to water and rail, centered on the community of Mountain View and the nearby Mountain View Lake. Rural life in the late 1960s is evidenced by scattered landmarks like St Josephs Ch and the remote Hoose Cem near Duane. The Salmon River meanders through the northern reaches, carving notable features such as The Bend and the narrow Needles Eye, while the southern portion transitions into the dense State Forest Preserve. Small clusters of activity like Porcaville and Goldsmith highlight the persistence of small mountain settlements within the park boundary, linked by secondary routes like Titusville Road and Ayers Road.
