Geological Outcrop Maps of the Adirondack Grenville

These formed part of the MS thesis or PhD dissertation of the authors of these maps in the Department of Geological Sciences at the University at Albany;
 some maps from senior undergraduate or graduate independent study projects have yet to be processed.

Most of these maps are on diazo/blueline paper, fading, and deteriorating by acid embrittlement and discolouration. The files linked represent an attempt to preserve these data (especially the outcrop locations, and the lithological, stratigraphic, and structural information), the product of much sweat, hard work, and intellectual effort in the imperfectly exposed and geologically complex region of the Adirondacks. - locations on Google Earth kmz file
