1965 Map of Pleasant View Summit

About this map

State Game Lands No 91 and Lackawanna State Forest dominate this landscape at the intersection of Luzerne, Lackawanna, and Carbon counties. The terrain is characterized by high ridges like Bald Mtn and Big Pine Hill, which are interspersed with numerous wetlands and water bodies including Mud Pond, Bear Lake, and the Horseshoe Swamp. The map reveals a transition toward recreation and conservation in the mid-20th century, where a Drag Strip and Pocono Spring sit near extensive public hunting and forest lands.
