1897 Map of Paradox Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1914

About this map

Hammondville and the nearby mining-related settlement of Ironville stand as prominent industrial landmarks in this 1890s Adirondack interior. The landscape is a complex network of high peaks and interconnected water systems, centered on the elongated Paradox Lake and the high elevation of Pharaoh Mt.. The presence of the AND H. R. R. (Abandoned) line near Ironville illustrates the shifting economic tides of the late 19th century, as early iron ore transport routes were already being left behind.
