1969 Map of Red Rock

About this map

Ricketts Glen State Park dominates this 1969 survey, preserving a dramatic landscape where the Allegheny Plateau drops off the Red Rock Mountain escarpment. The map documents the intricate hydrology of the area, featuring numerous glens and cataracts such as Kitchen Creek Falls, as well as upland water bodies like Lake Jean, Lake Rose, and Ganoga Lake. On the higher ridges, the Benton Air Force Station represents a Cold War-era military presence in an otherwise natural setting.
