1971 Map of Plainfield

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Plainfield and the high highlands of northwestern Massachusetts are defined by the convergence of four major state forests in this early 1970s revision. The landscape is a network of ridges and narrow stream valleys, where the Chickley River and Mill Brook drain the steep slopes of Hawks Mountain and Forge Hill. Scattered hamlets like West Hawley and Brier represent the traditional settlement pattern of the Berkshires, connected by winding routes like Chapel Road and the famous Mohawk Trail.
