1973 Map of Egremont

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Columbia County and Berkshire County line bisects this 1970s landscape, marking the transition between the New York and Massachusetts borderlands. The central valley is anchored by the trio of settlements at North Egremont, Egremont Plain, and South Egremont, where the Green River meanders through agricultural lands. To the south and west, the terrain rises sharply into the Mount Washington State Forest, featuring prominent peaks like Mt Sterling and Mt Whitbeck. This survey captures a moment of local institutional change, noting the presence of Cornwall Academy and Simon's Rock Early College alongside recreational developments such as the Catamount Ski Area and the Great Barrington Airport. Traceable road networks include the historic Shun Toll Road and the winding Appalachian Trail, which traverses the high ground near the Bash Bish Falls State Park boundary.
