1989 Map of Schroon Lake

About this map

Olmstedville and Schroon Lake anchor this late-1980s landscape within the Adirondack Park, where the transition from lakefront tourism to deep mountain interior is clearly defined. The eastern edge is dominated by the long reach of Schroon Lake, featuring a Boat Ramp, a Golf Course, and clusters of development at South Schroon. Moving west, the terrain rises toward the interior peaks of Minerva, where small settlements like Irishtown and Loch-Muller sit along winding valley roads. A prominent Snowmobile Trail cuts through the timbered heights between Muller Pond and Bailey Pond, illustrating the region's recreation-based economy. The map preserves the locations of local landmarks such as the Cem in Olmstedville and a Gravel Pit near Trout Brook, providing essential data for those tracing the industrial and genealogical history of these mountain hamlets.
