About this map

Mount Pocono sits at the northern height of this Monroe County landscape, serving as a gateway to the high plateau and the recreational corridor that defines the region. The map captures a high-density vacation and residential infrastructure, particularly visible in the planned streets of Penn Estates and the sprawling slopes of Camelback Mtn. Much of the western terrain is preserved within Big Pocono State Park, where the elevation provides a backdrop to the valley settlements of Tannersville and Lower Tannersville.

Transport and water dominate the character of the land, from the winding paths of Swiftwater Creek and Pocono Creek to the established hamlets of Scotrun and Swiftwater. These areas, historically shaped by early mountain tourism, show a complex network of local roads like Sullivan Trail and Knob Road that connect isolated lakes such as Lake Mitausin and Trout Lake to the primary commercial arteries.
