1965 Map of Edgemere

About this map

Highlands of the Poconos define this 1960s landscape, where the Delaware State Forest and State Game Lands No 180 encompass much of the terrain. The map reveals a transition toward recreational development, seen in the growth of Sagamore Estates and Birchwood Lakes, alongside established summer retreats like Camp Massad and the New Jersey Camp. Extensive water features including Gold Key Lake, Sunrise Lake, and Nichecronk Pond are interconnected by a complex network of forest paths such as the Tarburner Ridge Trail and Nelson Swamp Trail.
