1966 Map of Pecks Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Pecks Pond serves as a central landmark in this 1960s landscape, characterized by a complex network of glacial lakes, swamps, and ridges across the Delaware State Forest and State Game Lands No 180. The map documents a period of recreational transition in Pike County, visible through the development of Hemlock Farms and the presence of a ski lift near McConnell Pond and a golf course by Hemlock Lake. Settlement patterns are concentrated near Lords Valley and Blooming Grove, while much of the terrain remains dominated by extensive wetland systems like Maple Swamp and Inlet Swamp. This survey offers a detailed record of water features such as Porters Lake, Blue Heron Lake, and Lake Giles, which defined the local geography before more modern residential expansion fully altered the Pocono plateau's character.
