1958 Map of Bashbish Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Tri-State corner of Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York is dominated by the high peaks of the Taconic Range, anchored by Mt Everett and the Bashbish Falls State Forest. This mid-century survey captures a landscape of intense relief where Bashbish Brook carves through the mountains toward the landmark Bashbish Falls. To the east, the terrain transitions into the Housatonic Valley, where the educational influence of the Berkshire Sch and Mt Everett Regional Sch is evident. The map details a network of water bodies, from the high Guilder Pond near the Mt Washington Lookout Tower to the expansive Twin Lakes complex near Taconic. Traces of earlier settlements appear in the clusters of Hammertown and Joyceville, while the Appalachian Trail follows the ridge lines through Sages Ravine, marking a path through some of the region's most prominent summits like Mt Race and Bear Mtn.
