About this map

Ellenville serves as the primary population center in this region of Sullivan County, situated where the Sandburg Cr and Fantine Kill converge. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes of the Shawangunk Ridge, where landmarks like Bear Hill, Mount Meenahga, and Cragsmoor overlook the valley floor. Historically, this valley was a critical transportation corridor, evidenced by the path of the Delaware and Hudson Canal, which parallels the modern highway between Spring Glen and Phillipsport.

Water remains a central theme of the geography, with the Beer Kill and its various branches feeding into Honk Lake and Cape Pond. Local aviation is represented by the Joseph Y Resnick Airport north of the village. For genealogists and local historians, the map details established sites such as the Fantine Cem and the small residential clusters of Greenfield Park and Walker Valley, providing a clear look at the area's development in the early 21st century.
