About this map

The Cannonsville Reservoir dominates this landscape, its western branches filling the valleys around Speedwell Mountain and reaching toward the border of Broome Co and Delaware Co. The map documents a complex modern hydrology defined by the West Delaware Aqueduct and the original path of the West Branch Delaware River. In the higher elevations, small upland communities like Kelsey and Apex persist among the steep terrain of Michigan Hollow and Duffton Hollow.

Family-named landmarks and rural infrastructure remain central to the region's character, from the small White Birch Airport to the numerous feeder streams like Sands Creek, Roods Creek, and Laurel Creek. Private lakes including Columbia Lake, Silver Lake, and Russell Lake are scattered through the hills, while the old rail-aligned site at Kerry Siding marks the southeastern corridor. The intricate network of local roads, such as Nettie Axtell Rd and Franskevicz Rd, provides a clear view of current property access in this protected watershed area.
