2010 Map of Gardiner

About this map

The Shawangunk Mountains rise sharply in the northwest corner of this quadrangle, featuring landmarks like Gertrudes Nose and the high waters of Lake Minnewaska near Wildmere House. Below the ridge, the landscape transitions into the fertile Wallkill River valley, where the agricultural legacy of Ulster County is evident at Jenkins And Lueken Orchard and Dolan Orchards. The settlement of Gardiner serves as a central hub, connected to outlying hamlets like Bruynswick and Ireland Corners via a network of historic routes including Albany Post Rd. The local industrial past is anchored by the Tuthilltown Grist Mill near Tuthilltown, while the repurposing of the Wallkill Valley Rail Trl reflects a modern shift in how the community interacts with the corridor that once fueled its growth.
