1959 Map of Peru

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The town of Hinsdale and the high-elevation village of Peru anchor this mid-century look at the Berkshire hills. The landscape is defined by its transition from a working woodland and water-source geography to one of recreation and conservation. Clustered around the northern waters of Ashmere Lake, summer camps like Camp Taconic and Camp Danbee signal the area's mid-century role as a seasonal retreat. Meanwhile, massive tracts are dedicated to preservation, including Peru State Forest and the Dorothy Frances Rice Wildlife Refuge.
