2013 Map of Porter Corners

About this map

Porter Corners serves as the primary settlement in this part of Saratoga County, where the southern foothills of the Adirondacks meet the Kayaderosseras Range. The landscape is defined by a dense network of water bodies and marshlands, including Lake Desolation, Mulleyville Pond, and the expansive Archer Vly. These wetlands feed various branches of Kayaderosseras Cr and Black Cr, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the plateau. High points like Spruce Mountain and Pompy Ridge provide significant relief against the valleys. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies several burial sites scattered across the rural townships, such as Earls Cem, Day Cem, and Ballou Cem. The area maintains its character as a transition between established small communities and the more isolated, high-elevation terrain to the north and west.
