2016 Map of Ragged Lake

About this map

Ragged Lake and its intricate shoreline, including Peavey Bay and The Narrows, dominate this central Franklin County landscape within the Adirondack Park Preserve. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Ragged Lake Mtn and the Plumadore Range, which overlook a network of glacial ponds and streams. In the western portion, Bryants Mill sits near the headwaters of the Salmon River, marking a point of historic local industry. The southern reach is characterized by the expansive Plumadore Pond and its outlet, while the route of the D & H Rd provides a trace of former transportation corridors through the mountains. This 2016 survey illustrates a terrain of high ridges like Hardwood Hill and Brand Pinnacle, interspersed with remote water bodies like Wolf Pond and Indian Lake, reflecting the persistent wilderness character of the region.
