About this map

Tupper Lake serves as the focal point for this survey, where the Raquette River winds through the expansive Adirondack Park towards Raquette Pond. The settlement patterns here reflect a community built on the water and the timbered slopes, with the village grid centered on Main St and Demars Blvd. Local genealogy is well-documented through three distinct burial grounds: Lakeview Cem, Saint Alphonsus Cem, and Beth Joseph Cem.

The landscape rises sharply south of the village, dominated by the peaks of Mt Morris and Buck Mtn. This high ground is punctuated by numerous secluded water bodies, including Heavens Lake, McBride Pond, and Lake Madeleine. The transition from the developed streets near E Park St to the protected wilderness of the Adirondack Park Preserve illustrates the region's character as a gateway to the high peaks and forest tracts.
