1904 Map of Saranac

The map reveals a transition from industry to leisure, with Ames Mills positioned near the outlet of Ray Pond, while the sprawling waters of Lower Saranac Lake are dotted with named features like Algonquin and Eagle. This detailed record by H.M. Wilson and his team illustrates the complex topography from Mc Kenzie Mt. to the shores of Lake Clear, capturing the region at a time when the Adirondack Division was the primary artery through the High Peaks.
