USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
Sugarloaf Mtn and Butler Mountain dominate this corner of the Pennsylvania coal region, where deep valleys are defined by industrial infrastructure and ridge-top fire towers. The landscape reveals the complex network of the Lehigh Valley and Reading railroads as they navigate the ridges of Buck Mountain and Green Mountain. Settlements like Tomhicken (Sugarloaf PO) and Harwood (Harwood Mines PO) highlight the era's mining-centric economy, with their post office designations reflecting local identity.
