1966 Map of Pocono Pines

Large tracts of conservation land dominate the southern and northern sectors, including State Game Lands No 38 and the Delaware-Lehigh State Exper Forest. Water remains the defining feature of the terrain, from the headwaters of Tunkhannock Creek to numerous named ponds and gaps like Hypsy Gap and Poplar Gap. Local landmarks such as the St Joan of Arc Ch and the Golf Course at Mount Pocono serve as anchor points for these growing mountain settlements.
