2019 Map of Whitehall

About this map

Whitehall serves as a critical junction for water and rail traffic near the Vermont and New York state line. The village is defined by its maritime heritage, featuring the Champlain Canal Bridge and the winding Wood Creek, which navigate the gap between Skene Mtn and Death Rock. This 2019 survey documents the complex geography of the South Bay and its connection to the Drowned Lands of the northern marshes. To the east, the Mettawee River meanders toward The Elbow, while the surrounding uplands include several historical burial grounds such as Greenmount Cem and Our Lady of Angels Cem. The landscape transitions from the managed waterways of the canal to the protected wilderness of the Adirondack Park and its preserve. Notable local landmarks like Devils Pulpit and the industrial history suggested by Ore Bed Hill provide a window into the region's geological and economic past.
