1976 Map of Bushkill

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Delaware River forms a prominent boundary in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, where the water's edge meets the forested terrain of Monroe County. This aerial survey, produced by the Geological Survey and Soil Conservation Service, documents the landscape before more modern residential expansion altered the rural character of the area. The winding path of Bush Kill cuts through the northern portion of the map, leading toward the settlement of Bushkill. Near the river, the small community of Shoemakers sits along the road network that parallels the water. To the southeast, the massive footprint of the Yards Creek Reservoir stands out against the surrounding ridges. The imagery reveals a moment when the natural river valley still dominated the visual space, showing the interplay between the water, steep topography, and the sparse development of the late twentieth century.
