About this map

Andes serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated at the confluence of the Tremper Kill and numerous mountain hollows. The settlement pattern here is defined by these narrow valleys, including Gladstone Hollow and Bussey Hollow, which historically dictated the paths of travel and early farmstead locations. The prominence of family and community burial sites like the Andes Village Cem and the more remote Shaver Hollow Road Cem reflects a deeply rooted rural genealogy.

Upland features such as Calhoun Hill and Grays Mtn tower over a network of waterways and small impoundments, ranging from the northern Lake Delaware to the southern Arena Reservoir. These water bodies and their feeding streams, such as Bagley Brook and Liddle Brook, highlight the area's transition from a strictly agricultural economy to one shaped by regional water management and recreational land use.
