About this map

Shenipsit State Forest dominates the eastern half of this Connecticut landscape, where the wooded heights of Soapstone Mtn and Bald Mtn contrast with the agricultural valley to the west. The mid-century topography reveals a patchwork of rural holdings and small settlements connected by a dense network of country lanes like Egypt Road and Ninth District Road. Along the Scantic River, Somersville and its Mill Pond represent the region's industrial heritage, while the southern reaches near Windemere show the early stages of suburban expansion from the neighboring manufacturing centers.
