2010 Map of Highland Lake

About this map

Mohican Lake and the village of Highland Lake serve as the primary hubs of this landscape, where residential clusters meet a dense network of water bodies. The geography is defined by a series of significant reservoirs and ponds, including the large Swinging Bridge Reservoir and the Toronto Reservoir in the north, while the Mongaup River and Black Brook feed into the expansive Rio Reservoir and Mongaup Falls Reservoir to the south. This pattern of drainage suggests a history of water management and hydropower, evidenced by features such as the Wickman Millpond. Smaller settlements like Forestburg, Fowlerville, and Squirrels Corners are connected by a web of local roads such as Sackett Lake Rd and Plank Road Section B, reflecting a community oriented around these scattered glacial lakes and timbered uplands like Chapin Hill.
