1997 Map of Bearsville

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

Catskill Park dominates this landscape, where the town of Woodstock and the hamlet of Bearsville sit at the feet of the high peaks. The 1997 photoinspection, reflecting imagery back to 1943, reveals a rugged terrain defined by the drainage of the Saw Kill and Beaver Kill. Cultural history is anchored by early educational sites like School No 5 near Lake Hill and School No 3 south of Bearsville. The map highlights the historic arts-and-crafts colony at Byrdcliffe, situated on the slopes of Guardian Mountain. This region, long a retreat for artists and naturalists, maintains a settlement pattern of small clusters like Willow and Shady connected by Route 212, while the high elevations of Overlook Mountain and Mt Tobias remain largely undeveloped and protected.
