About this map

Pocono International Raceway appears here in the mid-1960s as it is being carved into the landscape of Tunkhannock and Kidder townships. This era captures a dramatic transformation of the Poconos from a timber and hunting wilderness into a recreation-centered economy. The development of Locust Lakes Village and the expansion of Big Boulder Ski Resort signal the arrival of the modern vacation community era, while the newly mapped 80 and Interchange 43 provide the high-speed transit necessary for this growth.
