About this map

Lake Maskenozha and the surrounding woodlands of the Delaware State Forest characterize this landscape in the mid-1990s. The map captures a transitional geography where private recreational developments like Wild Acres and seasonal sites such as Camp Massad and Camp Fire Camp sit adjacent to vast public lands. The eastern edge is defined by the steep descent toward the Delaware River, which serves as the boundary between Pike and Sussex Counties.

Cultural landmarks are concentrated near the river valley, including the settlement of Wallpack Center and the Holy Trinity Ch. The rugged hydrology of the region is evident in the numerous cascades along Dingmans Creek, specifically Dingmans Falls, Silverthread Falls, and Fulmer Falls. Historical industrial activity is noted at the Haney's Mill (Quarry) and an additional Quarry near the riverbank. This map provides a detailed view of the area just before the turn of the 21st century, showing the established roads and water bodies such as Silver Lake and Lehman Lake.
