1973 Map of Monterey

About this map

The Tyringham Valley and the central village of Monterey anchor this mid-century look at the southern Berkshires, where the landscape is defined by extensive public lands like the Beartown State Forest. The Appalachian Trail winds through the northern hills, passing near Shaker Pond and over Cobble Hill, reflecting the region’s long-standing character as a destination for recreation and spiritual retreat. This is evident in the presence of Hephzibah Heights, New England Keswick, and Camp Meadowlark. Water shapes the settlement pattern here, with large bodies like Lake Garfield and Hayes Pond providing focal points for local development. Farther south, the terrain becomes more isolated, characterized by the Sandisfield State Forest and family-named landmarks such as Palmer Pond and Stedman Pond.
