1940 Map of Hallton

About this map

The Clarion River winds through this 1940 survey of the Pennsylvania wilds, carving deep valleys through the heart of the Allegheny National Forest. This era of the landscape is defined by the intersection of early conservation and industrial activity, featuring the Game Commission Training Sch and a visible CCC Camp alongside active timber and rail networks. Several small settlements such as Hallton, Portland Mills, and Arroyo are shown at their mid-century peak, linked by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and the Erie Railroad that trace the river banks.
