1945 Map of Seager

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The high peaks and deep hollows of Catskill Park define this mid-century survey of the Hardenbergh and Shandaken region. This landscape is characterized by its steep drainages, where small settlements like Seager and Mapledale occupy the narrow valley floor of Dry Brook. On the higher elevations, the Lookout Tower atop Balsam Lake Mountain served as a critical vantage point for the forest preserve. Local genealogy is rooted in sites such as School No 4 and the Baker Cem, while family names are etched into the terrain via Tompkins Hollow and Haynes Mtn. The southern portion of the map follows the Beaver Kill and its various tributaries, including the curiously named Gulf of Mexico Brook. Notable natural features like Quaker Cave and Furlough Lake highlight the secluded character of these mountain ridges during the 1940s.
