About this map

The East Branch Farmington River Reservoir dominates the landscape of the Litchfield and Hartford county line, created by the massive Saville Dam north of New Hartford. This mid-century survey illustrates the transformative impact of water management on the valley, where the reservoir now fills the space between the Peoples State Forest and Tunxis State Forest. On the eastern slopes, the terrain rises toward Ratlum Mountain, revealing a network of rural roads such as Washington Hill Road and Barbourtown Road that connect small highland clusters like Barkhamsted.
