2019 Map of Ithaca West

About this map

Cayuga Lake dominates the northeastern corner of this area, where the steep terrain of the Finger Lakes region meets the urban edge of Ithaca. The landscape is defined by dramatic gorges and watercourses such as Coy Glen and Fall Creek, with the Cayuga Inlet carving through Inlet Valley. Notable for its high concentration of state-managed lands, the map details the boundaries of Robert H Treman State Park and Buttermilk Falls State Park, reflecting the region's commitment to preserving its unique geological features. The western uplands are dotted with small crossroads settlements like Krum Corner and Applegate Corner, while several cemeteries including West Hill Cem and Calvary Cem provide critical landmarks for genealogists. The presence of the Norfolk Southern railroad line and local landing strips like Neno Airport illustrate the transportation network serving the periphery of Tompkins County.
