1997 Map of Nesquehoning

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Nesquehoning and Lansford sit at the northern edge of this Pennsylvania landscape, where a series of steep, parallel ridges dominate the geography. Between Pisgah Mountain and Mauch Chunk Ridge, the waters of Mauch Chunk Lake fill the valley, while the Lehigh River cuts through the northeast corner at Jim Thorpe. This 1990s update, based on mid-century topography, reveals the enduring industrial and social footprint of the coal region.
