1958 Map of Bashbish Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Bashbish Falls serves as a focal point in this mountainous tri-state corner where Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York converge. The landscape is defined by the high ridges of the Mount Washington State Reservation and Bashbish Falls State Forest, punctuated by prominent peaks like Mt Everett and Alander Mtn. To the east, the valley floor near Sheffield and Salisbury shows a more developed pattern of schools and cemeteries, including the Berkshire Sch and Churchill Cem. This 1958 survey, updated with 1969 road data, captures the transition from high-elevation wilderness to the settled lowlands around Twin Lakes. Notable local features include the small settlements of City and Hammertown, as well as the Penn Central rail line cutting through the southern valley, illustrating the infrastructure connecting these rural communities.
