2010 Map of Barbours

About this map

Loyalsock Creek winds through this northern Pennsylvania landscape, anchoring a network of remote settlements and steep ridgelines. The small community of Proctor sits at the junction of Plunketts Creek and King Run, while Barbours and Hoppestown occupy high-ground positions further east. This 2010 topographic record highlights the lasting influence of resource extraction and forestry, seen in place names like Coal Mine Hollow and the presence of the Sprout Point Fire Tower. High-elevation landmarks such as Sharp Top Vista and Scalte Knob provide a sense of the vertical terrain, while the Whipple Cemetery offers a specific point of interest for genealogists tracking local families. A complex web of forest roads, including Pleasant Stream Rd and Cascade Rd, connects these isolated valleys, tracing the paths of earlier timber or coal routes that define the area's geography.
