About this map

The West Branch Delaware River carves a deep valley through this portion of Delaware County, serving as the primary corridor for settlement and transit. The village of Walton sits at the western edge of the sheet, while the smaller hamlets of Colchester and Hawleys follow the river's curve toward the southeast. The surrounding landscape is defined by steep, narrow hollows and high ridges, including Bear Spring Mtn and Colchester Mtn.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds tucked away in the uplands, such as the Feak Hollow Jamieson Cem and Archer Cem. The road network closely mirrors the complex drainage patterns of the Catskill foothills, with numerous secondary routes like Marvin Hollow RD and Fish Hollow RD providing access to isolated farmsteads and rural residences between the higher peaks of Dunk Hill and Starkweather Hill.
