About this map

Peekamoose Mountain and the high summits of the Burroughs Range dominate this 2016 survey of the Catskill High Peaks region. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Neversink River, where the W Br Neversink River and E Br Neversink River carve deep valleys through the mountain massif. Small settlements such as Denning, Sundown, and Bull Run are situated along these narrow valley floors, connected by winding roads like Peekamoose Rd and Sundown Rd.

The map details a topographic transition from the dramatic cliffs of Spencers Ledge to the low-lying Balsam Swamp near Greenville. Higher elevations include prominent peaks like Slide Mtn, Table Mtn, and Samson Mtn, separated by numerous drainages including Buttermilk Falls Brook and Stone Cabin Brook. This modern digital survey provides an exact look at the drainage patterns and transportation network of this highland area at the Ulster and Sullivan county line.
