We present a combined near-infrared and molecular-line study of 25 × 8 area in the Northern streamer of the IC 5146 cloud. Using the technique pioneered by Lada et al. (1994), we construct a Gaussian smoothed map of the infrared extinction with the same resolution as the molecular line observations in order to examine correlations of integrated intensities and molecular abundances with extincti...
