About this map

Scotch Bush and the surrounding uplands of the Montgomery and Schenectady county line are defined by a network of rural hamlets and small-scale aviation facilities. The landscape transitions from the high points of Bean Hill and Shellstone Hill down to the water systems of Mariaville Lake and the Duanesburg Reservoir.

Settlement patterns in this 2016 survey reveal numerous family-named cemeteries and intersections like Braman Corners and Eaton Corners, which have persisted as local landmarks for generations. The prominence of three separate flight facilities—the Six Ponds Airport, Mariaville Aerodrome, and Duanesburg Airport—illustrates a unique density of private aviation in this corridor between the South Chuctanunda Creek and the Normans Kill.
