1969 Map of Rondout Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Rondout Reservoir dominates this Catskill landscape, held back by the Merriman Dam near Lackawack. The terrain is defined by the sharp transition from the State Forest Preserve and Catskill State Park highlands to the managed water systems of the mid-twentieth century. Traces of older rural life persist through small settlements like Ulster Heights and Sholam, alongside family landmarks such as the Furman Cem. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the Delaware Aqueduct and the Spillway Elev 840, which transformed the valley of Rondout Creek. Away from the water, the map documents a network of local thoroughfares like Spook Hole Road and Diamond Road, connecting scattered hamlets including Potterville and Yagerville amidst a landscape of swamps and secondary peaks like East Mountain.
