1892 Map of Kaaterskill

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The northern Catskills landscape in the late nineteenth century is defined here by its rapid transition from wilderness to a refined mountain retreat. The famous Mountain House stands near North Lake and South Lake, overlooking the steep cloves and the dramatic Kaaterskill Falls. This era saw the establishment of exclusive residential enclaves like Onteora Park, Twilight Park, and Elka Park, which were served by a specialized rail network including the Elevating R. R. and the U. & D. R. R. through Kaaterskill Junction.
