About this map

West Fort Ann and the surrounding Adirondack foothills are defined by a complex network of glacial ponds and family landmarks in this 2013 survey. The landscape transitions from the heights of Putnam Mountain and Pilot Knob down to the agricultural and residential pockets of Tripoli and Pattens Mills. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds throughout the terrain, including Orcutt Cem, Brown Cem, and Griswold Cem, which anchor the local history of these rural communities.

Industry and recreation are both represented, from the historic Iron Furnace near the northern boundary to the established grounds of Camp Little Notch and Camp Wakpominee. Significant water bodies like Hadlock Pond, Lake Nebo, and Sly Pond are central features, connected by a dense web of local roads such as Buttermilk Falls Rd and Taylor Woods Rd. The map also captures the eastern edge of the Adirondack Park Preserve, illustrating the intersection of protected wilderness and established hamlets.
