About this map

The Susquehanna River cuts through the western edge of this landscape, marking a low-lying corridor where South Windsor and Damascus are situated. This area preserves a high concentration of pioneer and family burial grounds, including the Old S Windsor Cem, Edwards Cem, and Alexander Hill Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this portion of Broome County. To the east, the terrain rises toward the namesake settlement of Gulf Summit and the small hamlet of Cascade Valley, connected by a network of winding mountain roads.

The topography is defined by numerous small water bodies and creeks, such as Sky Lake, Deer Lake, and Tuscarora Cr, which drain the upland ridges. Human activity is distributed across small settlements like Mount Carmel and East Windsor, while the Forest Lake Campground highlights the area's modern recreational character. This map traces the intersection of local history and rural geography at the New York and Pennsylvania state line.
