About this map

The borderlands of Steuben and Schuyler counties are defined here by a series of narrow valleys and high ridges. Bradford and Monterey serve as the primary hubs of this landscape, linked by the winding course of Meads Creek and a network of rural routes like Co Rd 16 and Old State Rd. The area is notably dense with small, family-named burial grounds, such as Belmont Cemetery and Maltby Cemetery, which hint at the generations of settlers who farmed these hillsides.

Modern recreation intersects with this traditional geography via the N Country National Scenic Trail, which traverses the high ground of Grandview Rd and Fish Hill Rd. To the east, Cinnamon Lake provides a distinct hydrological feature amidst the elevations. The numerous labeled hollows, including Corbett Hollow and Sexton Hollow Rd, illustrate the topographic seclusion that has shaped the development of this part of New York.
