2013 Map of Barbours

About this map

Loyalsock Cr and Plunketts Cr define the drainage and settlement patterns of this central Pennsylvania landscape. The small community of Barbours sits at the southern bend of the creek, while Proctor occupies a strategic point further north along the tributary. This terrain is characterized by deep valleys and high overlooks, such as Sharp Top Vista and Sprout Point, which provided vantage points for the Sprout Point Fire Tower. The industrial heritage of the region is quietly noted by the presence of Coal Mine Hollow, tucked between Cove Mountain and the creek. A network of rural routes like Wallis Run Rd and Hoppestown Rd connects these isolated settlements, passing landmarks like Days Roundtop and the riverside area of Sandy Btm. This modern topographic survey provides a clear view of the legacy road systems and historical place names that persist in this forested part of Sullivan County.
