About this map

Ulster and Delaware R.R. tracks and the specialized Otis Elevating Ry. define the rugged transportation corridor of this 1890s survey. The map details the Catskills at a peak moment of resort culture and industrial access, marked by the iconic Mountain House and exclusive enclaves like Onteora Park and Twilight Park. Deep ravines such as Santa Cruz Ravine and Wildcat Ravine punctuate the steep descents toward the Hudson Valley, while settlements like Kaaterskill Junction served as critical nodes for narrow gauge rail operations.
