About this map

The Delaware River carves a sharp, winding boundary between Pennsylvania and New York in this mid-1960s study, where the Erie Lackawanna railroad tracks mirror the river's curves through Shohola. This area is rich with historical markers, notably the Minisink Battlefield Memorial and its adjacent monument near Minisink Ford, commemorating local colonial-era conflict. The landscape transitions from the river valley to the uplands of German Hill and Bald Hill, interspersed with small communities like Greeley and Barryville.

Researchers will find several significant community anchors, including St Anns Ch, St Jacobi Ch, and the Shohola Sch. The interior is dotted with numerous water bodies like Walker Lake, Twin Lakes, and the cascading Shohola Falls. Large portions of the terrain are dedicated to conservation, shown as State Game Lands No 116 and State Game Lands No 180, preserving the wooded character of Pike County.
