View from Clear pond towards the northeast,_ 27 
This view embraces a part of the highest peaks of the West-Moriah chain. Nipple top lies west of Dii 
peak, and is quite insulated; it is a bold steep mountain by itself, lying directly north of Clear pond. The 
range upon the right passes south by the observer, from the point where the view was taken. 
View of the Adirondack mountains from Lake Sanford,_ 35 
Mount Marcy is the middle peak in this view, distant about twelve or fifteen miles. The peak upon the 
left is Mount McMartin, lying west of the preceding. The view is from near the landing on the west side of 
Lake Sanford. 
Sketch showing the fractured state of the Trenton limestone at Watertown,_ 112 
Sketch showing the structure of the Loraine shales at Loraine,_ 119 
This view is taken from the entrance of the gorge leading up to Loraine from Adams. At this place the 
walls are about one hundred feet high. 
View of Glen’s-Falls,_ 189 
This view was taken twenty or thirty rods below the bridge. Since this was taken, some alterations have 
been made in the south end of the bridge; the whole space has been filled up from the water to form this 
structure. 
View of the Adirondack from Warrenshurgh,_ 191 
This view was taken from Harrington’s hill, near the village of Warrenshurgh. Mount Marcy is the 
highest point. It includes merely the group; but few of the intermediate mountains arc introduced. The 
serrated top is a mountain in Moriah, west of Pondsville. The low mountains in the foreground arc those 
adjoining Warrenshurgh. The group is forty miles north from this village. 
Great trap dyke at Avalanche lake,_215 
This dyke is excavated to the depth of about one himdred feet. It is eighty feet wide, and extends east up 
the mountain. Immense masses of rock, lying in all directions, arc encountered in the gorge. A slide from 
the summit of the mountain terminates upon the south wall of the dyke. It laid the rock entirely bare in its 
descent, and the contents of which were precipitated into Avalanche lake. Mount McIntyre is immediately 
west.
