2011 Map of State Line

About this map

Richmond Furnace and Rockdale Mills anchor this 2011 survey of the Berkshire highlands, illustrating the industrial legacy of a region once defined by iron production and water-powered milling. The landscape is a complex network of high peaks and drainage basins, where the Green River and Williams River cut through the Taconic and Berkshire ranges. Industrial history is etched into the terrain at Leet Ore Bed Pond, while local genealogy is preserved across several burial grounds, including the West Center Cemetery and Saint Patricks Cemetery. The map captures the small-town character of communities like West Stockbridge Center and the village of Austerlitz on the New York side of the boundary. Notable landmarks like Crane Lake Camp and Camp Kingsmont reflect the area's twentieth-century transition into a prominent recreational and summer camp destination.
