1967 Map of Bakersville

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Laurel Hill and the high ridges of the Allegheny Plateau define this portion of Somerset County, where the Pennsylvania Turnpike Toll Road snakes through the valleys of Clear Run and Crab Run. Small agricultural and residential clusters like Bakersville, Lavansville, and Indiantown are scattered along the secondary routes, many centered around local congregations such as Bethany Ch and Salem Ch. The map illustrates a landscape transitioning into a recreational hub during the late 1960s and early 1970s, featuring the Plateau De Mount Ski Area and the conserved lands of Kooser State Park and Laurel Hill State Park. Industrial history is visible in the north near Roytown, where an Old Railroad Grade and a Strip Mine mark the legacy of resource extraction alongside the headwaters of Quemahoning Creek.
