About this map

Lake Ontario defines the western reaches of this 1985 survey, where the shoreline is shaped by a sequence of bays and wildlife management areas. The Salmon River flows through the heart of Pulaski, a village known for its connection to the lake's rich aquatic resources. This era reflects the established regional transport network, anchored by the Conrail rail line and the corridor of Route 81, which connects inland settlements like Adams and Mannsville.

Inland, the terrain is marked by distinct geological features such as Lorraine Gulf and Mooney Gulf, while the coastal strip features protected lands including Selkirk Shores State Park and Lakeview State Wildlife Management Area. Maritime history is evident near Sackets Harbor and the Lighthouse at Stony Point. For the local historian, smaller settlements such as Pierrepont Manor and Thomas Settlement illustrate the enduring agricultural and residential patterns of Jefferson and Oswego counties.
