1903 Map of Kaaterskill

USGS Topo · Published 1906

About this map

Mountain House stands prominently atop the Escarpment, overlooking the Hudson Valley as a center of early tourism. This 1903 survey records a landscape defined by dramatic verticality and the specialized infrastructure built to conquer it, most notably the Otis Elevating R.R. and the winding lines of the Ulster and Delaware R.R. and Catskill Mountain R.R. These rails brought visitors to exclusive enclaves like Onteora Park, Twilight Park, and Elka Park.
