1967 Map of Wales

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The hills of South Central Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut meet here in a landscape defined by significant water management and recreation projects. The East Brimfield Reservoir and Hamilton Reservoir dominate the lowlands, reflecting post-war flood control and water storage efforts along the Quinebaug River. This topography reveals the transition from the settled town centers of Brimfield and Wales to the dense woods of Brimfield State Forest and Nipmuck State Forest. High points such as Rattlesnake Mtn and Mount Pisgah overlook a complex network of smaller ponds and brooks, including Mashapaug Pond and Leadmine Brook. The presence of the Nipmuck Trail and several youth camps, like the Springfield Boys Camp, highlights the area's mid-century character as a destination for outdoor recreation and conservation.
