About this map

Lake Garfield sits at the heart of this Berkshire County landscape, where the town of Monterey serves as a central hub for the surrounding highlands. The area is defined by its numerous water bodies and small settlements, including Tyringham to the north and West Otis to the east. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations such as Hephzibah Heights and Hunger Mountain, which rise above a network of waterways like the Konkapot River and Rawson Brook.

Evidence of the region's summer camp history is visible through Camp Meadowlark and Camp Jayson, while local genealogy is grounded in sites like Old Center Cem and Woods Cem. The distribution of roads like Monterey Rd and S Sandisfield Rd highlights the enduring connectivity between these mountain communities. The concentration of reservoirs and ponds, including Morley Swamp Reservoir and Stedman Pond, reflects a landscape deeply tied to its water resources.
