1966 Map of Mount Pocono

About this map

Camelback Mountain and the high ridges of the Poconos dominate this mid-1960s survey, showing a landscape defined by seasonal recreation and increasing infrastructure. The transition from timber and farming to a resort-focused economy is evident in the presence of Pocono Manor and the Big Pocono State Park. The burgeoning transportation network is highlighted by Interchange 44 and Interchange 45, which facilitated the mid-century growth of settlements like Tannersville and Swiftwater.
