2013 Map of Laporte

About this map

Laporte and the surrounding Sullivan County landscape are defined by the winding course of Loyalsock Cr and its many tributaries. This 2013 survey illustrates a region where water and topography dictate the settlement pattern, from the high elevation of Summit to the dramatic Dutchman Falls and Haystacks Rapids on the creek. The area includes industrial vestiges such as Old Mine Rd near Bernice and Mildred, alongside recreational destinations like Mokoma Lake and Lake Akela. The Loyalsock Trl follows the northern banks of the creek, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by the drainages of Muncy Cr and Glass Cr, revealing a transition from small towns to the deep hollows of the eastern Alleghenies. Local landmarks such as Nordmont Camp and Foley Corner serve as anchors for the rural road network connecting these scattered communities.
