1960 Map of Christmans

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Lehigh River snakes through the deep valleys of Carbon County, cutting a prominent path through Bald Mountain and Summer Mountain. This 1970 photorevised survey illustrates the complex rail infrastructure of the era, where the Lehigh Valley RR and the Central RR of New Jersey converge at Penn Haven Junction. These transport corridors follow the river’s winding course, notably passing through the Rockport Tunnel, a testament to the engineering required to navigate the anthracite coal region’s difficult topography.
