1986 Map of Pepacton Reservoir

About this map

The Pepacton Reservoir dominates the southern portion of this mid-1980s landscape, serving as a massive hydrological anchor for the western Catskill Mountains. The map traces the intricate drainage systems of the West Branch Delaware River and East Branch Delaware River, alongside the Schoharie Creek and Esopus Creek valleys. This era shows a region defined by its protected lands, with the vast Catskill Park and designated conservation zones like the Vinegar Hill State Wildlife Mgmt Area preserving the character of the high peaks.
