2019 Map of Saint Regis Mountain

About this map

Paul Smith's College sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, a historic center of education and community life near the shores of Lower Saint Regis Lake. The surrounding terrain is a complex network of glacial ponds and wetlands, dominated by the peaks of Saint Regis Mtn and Jenkins Mtn. Waterways like the Saint Regis River and its branches, including the W Br Saint Regis River, connect numerous small bodies of water such as Fish Pond, Ochre Pond, and Slush Pond. Human activity is concentrated along early routes like Keese Mills Rd and the settlement at Keese Mill. The map documents historic portage paths like the St Regis Carry, which links Upper Saint Regis Lake to the interior pond systems, reflecting the area's long-standing character as a destination for navigation and recreation within the Adirondack Park Preserve.
