About this map

Housatonic Valley and the surrounding Litchfield County highlands define this 2018 survey, centered on the historic village of Cornwall. The landscape is dominated by steep summits such as Green Mtn, Mohawk Mtn, and the distinctive Pinnacle, with the Housatonic River carving the western edge of the quadrangle. Significant water resources like the Upper Shepaug Reservoir and Tyler Lake are prominent, illustrating the region's role in local water management and recreation.

Local history is well-preserved through several family and community burial grounds, including Allen Cem and Southeast Cem. The map traces the winding paths of rural thoroughfares such as Town St and Dibble Hill Rd, which connect isolated settlements like East Cornwall and Milton. The presence of the Wings Ago Airstrip and numerous swamps like Black Spruce Bog highlight the varied uses of the terrain, from aviation to protected wetland ecosystems.
