1946 Map of Renovo East

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a deep path through the high plateaus of Clinton County, anchoring the timber and transit hubs of Renovo and South Renovo. During the mid-1940s, this corridor remained a vital artery for the Pennsylvania railroad, which follows the river's winding northern bank past Gleasonton and Hyner. The surrounding highlands of Summerson Mountain and Hyner Mountain are interlaced with an extensive network of footpaths like the Greenlick Trail and Italian Hollow Trail, reflecting the region's transition into a center for forestry and mountain recreation. Of particular note for local historians is the St Josephs Cem located near Farwell, and the small river communities of North Bend and Glen Union. The northeastern corner of the map reveals the striking topography of the Pine Creek Gorge, where the New York Central rail line navigates the narrow valley floor.
