1959 Map of Pocono

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Lake Wallenpaupack dominates the upper-central portion of this landscape, a significant reservoir in the heart of the Pocono Mountains. This survey, compiled from work by the War Department and U.S. Geological Survey, illustrates a mid-century period when rural schoolhouses and small-town churches still formed the backbone of local communities. Local history is preserved in the placement of the Millertown School and Bartonsville School, as well as the numerous camps like Camp Tegawitha and Camp Owaissa that highlight the region's burgeoning recreational identity.
