About this map

Lake George dominates the eastern landscape of this 2010 survey, serving as the backdrop for established lakeside communities and a complex network of islands. The shoreline is punctuated by historic landing points and bays, from the northern settlement of Hague down to the distinct camps at Silver Bay and Huletts Landing. The interior reveals a rugged terrain defined by the Tongue Mountain Range and numerous summits like Fivemile Mountain and Elephant Mountain.

Evidence of earlier land use is found at Wardsboro Cemetery, situated along Wardsboro Rd near Northwest Bay Brook. This area provides a detailed look at the high-elevation water bodies that feed the lake, including Jabe Pond and Swede Pond. The island clusters, such as the Harbor Islands and Vicars Island, illustrate the intricate geography of the lake's central channel, which has long been central to the region's recreation and navigation history.
