THE GEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS
The Appalachian Mountains Region, New York
The Northeast Highlands Ecoregion, Adirondacks Go Down Go Back
The Adirondack Mountains, known as the Adirondacks in northeastern New York, United States are a separate geological area demarcated by faults. The current relief owes much to glaciation.
The Adirondack Mountain boundaries correspond to the boundaries of Adirondack Park. The mountains form a roughly circular dome, about 160 miles (260 km) in diameter and about 1 mile (1,600 m) high.
