2013 Map of Coburn

About this map

Coburn sits at the confluence of Elk Cr and Pine Cr, serving as a focal point in a landscape defined by deep valleys and high ridges. The area reflects a history of conservation and outdoor recreation, centered on Poe Valley State Park and the waters of Poe Lake. Traces of earlier land use are evident in labels such as the CCC Camp and the winding route of Penns Cr, which cuts through the mountainous terrain. Further east, the settlement of Ingleby lies near Lick Hollow and Sawmill Knob, indicating a legacy of local timber or milling activity. The map records numerous gaps and hollows, including Stillhouse Hollow and Rupp Hollow, which suggest the early industrial and domestic history of these isolated Pennsylvanian drainages. This survey captures the region just as modern environmental management and forestry practices have preserved the character of Big Poe Valley and Old Mingle Valley.
