About this map

Peekamoose and the high elevations of the Burroughs Range define this 2019 survey of the Catskill interior. The topography is dominated by massive peaks including Slide Mtn, Table Mtn, and Samson Mtn, which drop steeply into the drainages of the West Branch Neversink River and Rondout Creek. Small settlements like Denning, Bull Run, and Sundown are tied together by winding mountain roads such as Peekamoose Rd and Denning Rd, following the natural contours of the valley floors.

Detailed drainage patterns are evident through the numerous named waterways like Buttermilk Falls Brook and Stone Cabin Brook, which feed the larger creek systems. On the southeastern edge of the map, Greenville sits near the Balsam Swamp, showing the transition from steep peaks to the slightly more navigable lowlands. This map serves as a precise modern record of the Catskill high peaks and the small communities that persist in their deep valleys.
