94 Topographical Sketch of the State of New York. 



No. II. 



Table of Ascents and Descents from the Hudson, at Kingston 

 Landing, to Bath in Steuben County, by the route of the vallies 

 of the Rondout Creek, the Beaver Kill, the east branch of the 

 Delaware, and the east and west branches of the Susquehanna. 



The last six stations in the above table, or those from Bing- 

 hamton to Bath inclusive, are along the valley of the two great 

 branches of the Susquehanna. The elevations opposite these sta- 

 tions give 900 feet as the mean height of the bottom of this valley, 

 but the mountains on each side rise from five hundred to a thou' 

 eand feet higher. These mountains are some of the high ridges 

 whose elevations are given in table No. 1, and which here retain 

 about the same elevation.
