1970 Map of Picture Rocks

About this map

Muncy Creek carves a deep valley through the rugged Lycoming County terrain, serving as the primary corridor for settlement and industry in this 1970 snapshot of the region. The borough of Picture Rocks sits at the southern bend where Race Mill Run meets the creek, while smaller hamlets like Tivoli and Glen Mawr follow the waterway upstream. The landscape is defined by its transition from the managed timberlands of the Tiadaghton State Forest and the peaks of Allegheny Ridge to the agricultural pockets near Bryan Mill. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the era, from high-altitude camps such as Camp Genesee and Dunwoody Camp to the network of pipelines and the Loyalsock Trail. Local spiritual and community life is anchored by landmarks like Mapleton Ch and the Ebenezer Cem, reflecting the area's deep-rooted family history.
