1966 Map of Russell City

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The extractive industries of the mid-twentieth century dominate this landscape in the Allegheny National Forest, where a dense network of gas wells and oil fields spreads across the high plateaus. Small settlements like Russell City and Chaffee serve as focal points along the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which cuts through the rugged creek valleys of the Tionesta Creek watershed. The map reveals the infrastructure of a working forest, including a Pumping Sta near Sackett and various jeep trails and old grades that connect isolated outposts such as Duhring and Pine Camp. This survey documents a transition in the region's economy, where historic rail junctions like Sheffield Junction coexist with expanding energy production fields like the Oil and Gas Field surrounding Four Corners.
