1908 Map of Piseco Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1918

About this map

The waters of Piseco Lake dominate this survey of the southern Adirondack wilderness, where isolated 19th-century settlements like Piseco and Rudeston cling to the shoreline. The landscape is defined by the sharp verticality of Panther Mtn and Echo Cliff, rising abruptly above the lake. Away from the water, the map reveals a rugged interior of unnamed timberlands and family-named clearings such as Powley Place, Averys Place, and Shaker Place, suggesting a sparse network of logging camps and remote homesteads connected by early trails.
