About this map

Honeoye Inlet snakes through the western edge of this Ontario County landscape, where the dramatic elevation changes of the Finger Lakes region are on full display. The area is defined by a series of steep ridges and deep valleys, most notably the transition from the heights of Gannett Hill and Stid Hill down to the pastoral stretches of Bristol Valley. Small settlements such as Bristol Springs and South Bristol serve as local hubs, connected by a network of rural routes like Gulick Rd and S Hill Rd.

Genealogists will find several resting places documented, including Hunt Hollow Cem, Pamely Cem, and Fairview Cem. The map reveals the intricate recreational and community use of the land, from the Camp Cutler BSA grounds to the numerous hiking trails like the Red Trail and Yellow Trail near The Jumpoff. The terrain is deeply etched by water, with Briggs Gully and Grimes Cr cutting through the hills toward the southern flats near Naples.
