About this map

Piseco Lake and its surrounding peaks dominate this Hamilton County terrain, illustrating a landscape defined by water and high relief. The small settlements of Piseco and Rudeston are located along the northeastern shore, served by the Piseco Airport and a network of local roads like Old Piseco Rd. The map reveals a complex hydrologic system where Fall Stream and Jessup River feed into the northern basins, while the Piseco Outlet drains the southern end of Big Bay.

Elevations rise sharply from the water's edge to landmarks such as Echo Cliff and Piseco Mtn. To the west, the topography becomes even more intricate with numerous smaller bodies of water including T Lake, Twin Lakes, and Evergreen Lake. This 2016 survey captures the area's modern footprint, from the clustered seasonal and year-round homes at Higgins Bay to the remote reaches of Irondequoit Mtn and the Buck Ponds.
