The plateau lands of Knox and Berne define this turn-of-the-century landscape, characterized by small village clusters and a complex network of creeks that once supported local milling. While the northern edge is marked by the industrial presence of the Delaware and Hudson RR serving Altamont and Delanson, the southern reaches remain deeply agricultural around Rensselaerville and Westerlo. A prominent geographical feature is the escarpment at Indian Ladder, which overlooks the lowlands and now sits within John Boyd Thacher Park.
