The map shows areas that are 5000-6000 feet ASL as flooded, yet most of New York state is not flooded. At 4000 feet of water, all of New York becomes 46 tiny islands in the Adirondacks...And I've been to more than 30 of those "tiny islands".

That map is of the continent 50-100 million years ago. Prior to the formation of the Rocky Mountains. You can find ocean fish fossils at 8,000 ft in the Colo Rockies.
