1907 Map of Tupper Lake

About this map

The Adirondack Division of the New York Central railroad cuts through the heavy timber and high peaks of the western Adirondacks, anchoring small industrial and transit outposts like Piercefield and Childwold Sta. This early 20th-century landscape is defined by its water and its isolation, centered on the expansive waters of Tupper Lake and Horseshoe Lake. The presence of the Grass River Club and the Sabattis P O highlights the region's dual identity as both a productive timber frontier and a burgeoning destination for sportsmen and seasonal camps.
