1958 Map of Peach Lake

About this map

Glacial lakes and ridgelines define the borderlands of New York and Connecticut in this mid-century survey, Revised in 1958. The landscape is characterized by a series of north-south elevations such as Scott Ridge and Dingee Ridge, which channel water into significant reservoirs and natural basins. The Titicus Reservoir dominates the western portion of the map, while to the east, the sprawling waters of Peach Lake and Mamanasco Lake sit near the state line. Smaller, interconnected bodies like Lake Waccabuc, Lake Rippowam, and Lake Oscaleta illustrate the hydrologic complexity of the area.
