1899 Map of Kaaterskill

USGS Topo · Published 1902

About this map

The dramatic Catskill escarpment dominates this late 19th-century survey, highlighted by the prestigious Mountain House and the steep Otis Elevating R. R. leading toward the peaks. This era saw the region established as a premier retreat, with private communities like Onteora Park, Twilight Park, and Elka Park providing seasonal escapes for the era's elite. The transport network reveals a reliance on narrow-gauge rail and specialized inclines to navigate the difficult terrain of Kaaterskill Clove and Stony Clove.
