About this map

Mount Pocono and the surrounding high-country plateau of Monroe County are defined by a long-standing recreation and resort economy in this 2010 study. The landscape is a complex network of leisure developments and managed water bodies, including Pocono Manor, the Mount Airy Lodge Ski Area, and the Camelback Ski Area situated near the Camelback - Big Pocono Mountain Overlook. These sites are linked by historic corridors like the Sullivan Trl and remnants of earlier infrastructure like the Old RR Bed near Tannersville.

Smaller hamlets such as Swiftwater, Reeders, and Bartonsville are situated along the winding paths of Pocono Creek and Swiftwater Creek, which are punctuated by numerous private dams and lakes like Lake Minausin and Brookdale Lake. The presence of the Birchwood-Pocono Airpark and multiple golf courses like the Stricklands Wiscasset Golf Course further illustrates the region's 21st-century character as a destination for outdoor sport and seasonal residency.
