DescriptionMap of the Mattatuck State Forest in Litchfield County, Connecticut, spanning the towns of Thomaston, Plymouth, Waterbury, and Watertown. The map depicts the greater area, which also includes the towns of Litchfield, Wolcott and Middlebury (New Haven County), as well as state roads, which are depicted in thick black lines. Town and county roads are shown as smaller, parallel lines. The elevation of Mt. Toby is conveyed with hachure marks. The locations of the fireplace and picnic grounds and a Boy Scout trail, as well as the "tool box for use in case of fire," are pointed out. On the back is a notice to the public providing information about various aspects of the forest, including its topography, location, and recreational activities.
