1987 Map of Putnam Valley

About this map

Putnam Valley is centered around the meandering path of Elk Creek, which serves as the primary drainage for this part of Douglas County. In the mid-1980s, the small settlement of Sunnydale stood as the local focal point, surrounded by a complex system of ridges and high points such as Lookout Mtn and Deadman Butte. The landscape is deeply carved by numerous tributaries including Thistleburn Creek and Tom Folley Creek, reflecting a region defined by its timbered slopes and creek-bottom access. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by a Quarry and a prominent Powerline corridor that cuts through the southern sections. Genealogists and local historians can locate several Cem sites, likely holding the family histories of the early homesteaders who settled along the creek banks and ridges like Allen Ridge.
