1943 Map of Lykens
USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
Coal or Thick Mountain and Mahantongo Mountain define the rhythmic, ridged geography of this Central Pennsylvania landscape during the early 1940s. The region’s industrial identity is etched into the topography through a concentration of anthracite-related features, including an Abandoned Colliery, various Strip Mine operations, and a Briquet Plant near Lykens. The Reading railroad provides the vital infrastructure connecting these extraction points through the valley, passing through the established mining hubs of Williamstown and Tower City.
