2010 Map of Prattsville

About this map

Schoharie Creek and its major tributaries, including the Batavia Kill and Little West Kill, dominate this Catskill landscape at the beginning of the 21st century. The waters of the Schoharie Reservoir fill the northern valley, fed by the Bear Kill near Hardenburgh Falls. Local history is deeply embedded in the terrain, with family-named landmarks like Maben Hill and Kipp Hill rising above the valleys, while several historic burial grounds such as Fairlawn Cemetery and Rappelea Cemetery are scattered throughout the rural landscape. The settlement of Prattsville serves as a central hub, situated near the distinctive Pratt Rocks. To the south, the terrain becomes more isolated toward Bearpen Mountain and Roundtop, while Maben Airport and the small communities of North Lexington and Mosquito Point define the eastern and southern reaches of this transition between river valley and mountain peaks.
