1966 Map of Rowland

About this map

The Lackawaxen River carves a deep valley through this corner of Pike County, defining a landscape where early industry and recreation meet the Pennsylvania wilderness. Along the northern riverbanks, the small settlements of Glen Eyre, Kimble, and Rowland mark the path of the valley floor, with the Shimers Rock Cut indicating the rugged engineering required for early transport. Further south, the terrain rises into the heavily wooded Delaware State Forest, dotted with numerous wetlands and glacial features like Beaver Swamp and Fourmile Pond.
