1969 Map of West Pierrepont

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

West Pierrepont and the surrounding township of Clare anchor this landscape in the northern foothills of the Adirondacks during the late 1960s. The area is defined by a dense network of family-named intersections such as Moores Corners, Van House Corners, and Endersbees Corners, reflecting a deeply rooted rural settlement pattern. The rugged hydraulic character of the Grass River is evident through significant drops at Harper Falls and Lampsons Falls, while the South Branch Grass River and Middle Branch wind through the southern timberlands. Public lands dominate the topography, with the Donnerville State Forest and the northern edge of the Adirondack State Park preserving the wild character of the region. An Old Railroad Grade cutting through the forest provides a tangible link to the area's historical logging and industrial transport era, alongside quiet water bodies like Boyd Pond and the marshy expanses of Big Swamp.
