1966 Map of Pecks Pond

About this map

Delaware State Forest and State Game Lands No 180 dominate this Poconos landscape, where the 1960s terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes, swamps, and ridges. Central to the map is Pecks Pond, featuring Pinchot Island and surrounded by smaller water bodies like White Birch Swamp and Tarkill Creek. The settlement patterns reflect a mid-century transition toward recreational and community development, notably at Hemlock Farms near McConnell Pond and the seasonal Rock Hill Camp.
