About this map

The Delaware River carves a sharp, winding boundary between New York and Pennsylvania in this detailed study. The landscape is defined by the steep terrain of Lumberland and Highland, where small hamlets like Glen Spey and Pond Eddy are situated. Near the river, the Sacred Heart Ch and Hillside Cem serve as focal points for local genealogy and history, reflecting the community structure of the late 20th century.

Large-scale water management and conservation efforts are evident through the Rio Reservoir and the Mongaup Valley State Wildlife Mgmt Area to the east. The rugged interior is marked by significant natural features such as Bushkill Swamp and the uniquely named Wallowing Hole. Surveyors also noted industrial and utility footprints, including a Powerplant along the Mongaup River and several gravel pits, indicating the local economy's reliance on both natural resources and the river corridor.
