1968 Map of Narrowsburg

About this map

Narrowsburg and the winding corridor of the Upper Delaware River define this river-valley landscape during the late 1960s. The region shows a dense network of water bodies and recreational camps, from Luxton Lake in the northeast to Wolf Lake and Teedyuskung Lake in the southwest. Transport and industry follow the river's curve, with the Conrail line hugging the eastern bank past Tusten Station and Darbytown. Local history is anchored by several rural burial grounds including Glen Cove Cem and Lava Cem, alongside the St Francis Ch in the heart of town. The map documents a geography where logging-era settlements like Tusten transitioned into a summer recreation hub, evident in the numerous camps and parks like Forest Lake Park and Camp Colang.
