1946 Map of Kaaterskill

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Mountain House stands as a prominent landmark overlooking the dramatic eastern escarpment of the Catskill State Park in this mid-century survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the Hudson Valley lowlands and the high peaks, connected by the winding Kaaterskill Clove. Along the northern plateau, the resort communities of Tannersville, Haines Falls, and Twilight Park are established near the shores of North Lake and South Lake. The intricate topography of the region is mapped in detail, showing numerous deep ravines such as Wildcat Ravine and Santa Cruz Ravine. Further south, the map documents the isolated settlement of Platte Clove and the prominent heights of High Peak and Roundtop Mtn, providing a clear record of the area's roads and drainage patterns before later modern development altered the rural mountain character.
