1976 Map of Hickory Run

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Lehigh River bends sharply through this Carbon County landscape, defining the western edge of a region characterized by deep valleys and high plateaus. Captured in the mid-1970s via aerial orthophotography, the map reveals the intersection of modern transportation with small, established settlements. The cluster at Leonardsville sits near a major highway junction, illustrating the evolution of local transit from historic mountain passes to high-speed corridors. Further south, Saylorville remains tucked away near the eponymous Hickory Run, showing the persistent footprint of these smaller communities amidst the expanding forest cover. In the northeast, the confluence of Tobyhanna Creek and the river highlights the natural drainage patterns that have shaped the industrial and recreational history of the area, while the settlement of East Side occupies a strategic bend in the river's path.
