About this map

The Old Newburgh and Cochecton Turnpike cuts through the southern reaches of this Susquehanna County landscape, reflecting the historical thoroughfares that shaped the region's early travel. By the late 1960s, the terrain is characterized by a mix of upland ridges like Snake Hill and Slocum Hill and numerous water bodies, including Fiddle Lake, Butler Lake, and Stearns Lake. The industrial and transit legacy of the area is visible in the corridor where the Delaware and Hudson and Erie-Lackawanna rail lines run parallel through the eastern valley, serving the town of Thompson and the smaller settlement at Ararat.
