1969 Map of Ithaca West

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The western edges of Ithaca and the steep southern shores of Cayuga Lake dominate this 1969 topographic record. The landscape is defined by dramatic vertical relief, where several watercourses carve deep glens into the plateau. Notable among these are the series of cascades within Robert H Treman State Park, including Lucifer Falls, and the iconic Buttermilk Falls State Park to the southeast. These natural features shaped the early settlement patterns, forcing transport networks like the Catskill Turnpike and the Conrail lines to navigate the complex topography of the Cayuga Inlet valley.
