About this map

Eagles Mere serves as the focal point of this survey of the northern Pennsylvania highlands, where the Eagles Mere Lake resort community is surrounded by the deep drainages of Loyalsock Creek and Muncy Creek. The map documents a period when the timber and resort economies shaped the landscape, evidenced by the numerous mountain camps such as Nolan Camp and Bear Dunwoody Camp. The corridor along the Williamsport and North Branch RR anchors the southern half of the sheet, connecting settlements like Sonestown, Muncy Valley, and Picture Rocks.

A dense network of rural infrastructure is visible, including dozens of neighborhood schools like Beechwood Sch and Victor Sch, alongside remote landmarks like the Fire Tower on North Mountain. The terrain is defined by prominent ridges including Allegheny Ridge and Huckleberry Mtn, while the presence of Mawrglen PO and the Ogdonia Clubhouse reflects the era's specific postal and social geography before the modernization of the local road system.
