About this map

Peasleeville and Norrisville anchor this mid-1960s study of the foothills within the Adirondack State Park. The landscape is defined by its transition from the managed timberlands of Clinton State Forest and Burnt Hill State Forest to the numerous named peaks like Terry Mountain and Hogback Mountain. Notable human footprints include the Zion Ch and Peasleeville Cem, alongside the distinct Radio Towers (WPTZ-TV) atop the higher elevations.

Waterways like the Salmon River and Black Brook carve through the terrain, supporting isolated water bodies such as Military Pond and Mud Pond. The inclusion of the Old Military Road and Guide Board Road suggests the historical importance of through-travel in this part of Clinton County. Of particular interest is the localized place name North Pole, situated in the southern portion of the quadrangle near Nancy Ryan Mountain.
