About this map

The Ramapo River corridor serves as the primary artery for this region of the Ramapo Mountains, where the modern footprint of transportation and mountain terrain converge. This area, located near the intersection of Orange and Rockland counties in New York and Passaic and Bergen counties in New Jersey, is defined by significant water bodies such as Tuxedo Lake and Lake Sebago. The village of Sloatsburg and the gated enclave of Tuxedo Park are prominent residential centers, with the latter featuring the historic Saint Mary's In-Tuxedo Churchyard.

Industry and infrastructure are noted through the Hillburn Reservoir and the clustering of settlements like Sterlington, Hillburn, and Eagle Valley. The landscape is characterized by numerous peaks such as Wildcat Mtn and Parker Cabin Mtn, which frame narrow hollows and protected swamp lands like Spruce Swamp. These natural features, combined with the dense network of local roads such as Seven Lakes Dr and Eagle Valley Rd, illustrate the complex topography that has shaped the growth and accessibility of these mountain communities.
