1969 Map of Marble Mountain

About this map

St Joe River carves through the heart of the St Joe National Forest in this late 1960s topographic study. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Marble Mtn and Camelback Mtn, where numerous tributaries like Pocono Creek and Marble Creek feed the primary river system. Evidence of early 20th-century engineering is prominent along the river's path, specifically the CM St P & P railroad line. This route includes a notable Tunnel and passes through the small settlement of Pocono, positioned near Pocono Hill. The map detail shows a network of transit from another era, including several segments of Pack Trail and a Homestead Trail, reflecting the transition from traditional backcountry travel to more modern forest access via Jeep Trail and established Campground facilities near Donkey Creek.
