1903 Map of Kaaterskill

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The high peaks of the eastern Catskills dominate this 1892 survey, where mountain tourism and rail engineering met at the turn of the century. The famous Mountain House overlooks the dramatic drop into the valley, positioned near North Lake and the iconic Kaaterskill Falls. This era of development is defined by ambitious narrow-gauge and incline rail lines, including the Otis Elevating R. R. and the Stony Clove and Catskill Mt. R. R., which connected seasonal visitors to exclusive enclaves like Onteora Park and Twilight Park.
