1973 Map of Otis

About this map

The expansive waters of the Otis Reservoir dominate this 1970s landscape, serving as a focal point for recreation with various landings, including the Campground and Picnic Area near Clark Island. The surrounding territory, largely preserved within the Otis State Forest, Sandisfield State Forest, and Tolland State Forest, reflects a transition from early upland farming and transport to a twentieth-century economy of timber and tourism. Evidence of the area's older infrastructure persists in the Old Railroad Grade and the Toll Road, which parallel the modern Massachusetts Turnpike across the northern hills.
