About this map

The Taconic Range defines this tri-state boundary region where New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut converge at a rare geographical triple point. The high-elevation terrain is anchored by peaks like Mt Frissell and Bear Mtn, providing the backdrop for a significant stretch of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. In the valleys below, the influence of early industry is evident near Scoville Ore Mine Rd, reflecting the historic iron heritage of the Litchfield Hills. The landscape transitions from the heights of Mt Everett to the recreational waters of Twin Lakes, including Washining Lake and Washinee Lake. Small settlements like Taconic and Joyceville sit near the water's edge, while Sages Ravine marks the rugged transition between state lines. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Churchill Cem, tucked along the eastern slopes of the range.
