About this map

Hensonville and Maplecrest occupy the lower elevations of this 1980 survey, where the valley of the Batavia Kill winds through the northern Cats Kill State Park. The map documents a transition in the landscape as agricultural use around settlements like Cornwallville and Windham meets the high peaks of the Blackhead Mountains. Notable high points including Thomas Cole Mtn, Black Dome, and Windham High Peak dominate the southern half of the quadrangle.

Evidence of historical infrastructure is visible along the river corridor, specifically the Old Railroad Grade passing through Brooksburg. Recreational development is also prominent, with Lake Heloise and its associated Campgrounds situated in the northern reaches near Mt Hayden. The presence of the Point Lookout Lookout Tower near East Windham underscores the area's importance for observation and forest management within the state park boundaries.
