1969 Map of Brookland

About this map

Susquehannock State Forest dominates this Potter County landscape, where the headwaters of Pine Creek carve through deep hollows. The late 1960s terrain shows a region defined by recreational development and resource extraction, anchored by the presence of Denton Hill State Park and its Ski Lifts. In the valleys, small settlements like Brookland and Walton sit along the winding Wellsville Addison and Galeton corridor. The map preserves local landmarks such as the Oak Hall Sch and the Potato City Airfield, while numerous gas wells and pipelines indicate the industrial footprint of the era. The transition from timbered ridges to narrow agricultural flats is evident near Newfield Junction and the small upland community at Gold.
