1956 Map of South Canaan

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Housatonic River carves a path through the northwestern corner of this Connecticut landscape, marking the transition between the townships of Canaan and Salisbury. In the mid-1950s, the area remained deeply defined by its natural resources and academic institutional presence, notably the Yale University Forestry School and the extensive acreage of the Housatonic State Forest. Small settlements like Falls Village and South Canaan are connected by a network of rural roads that skirt prominent terrain features such as Barrack Mountain and Music Mtn.
