1931 Map of Snow Shoe

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Snow Shoe and the surrounding coal-rich hills of Centre County are captured here in a transition between 1920s field surveys and early 1940s reprint production. The landscape is defined by the industrial reach of the New York Central and the Central Railroad of Pennsylvania, which served numerous extraction points like Mine No 22 and Mine No 26. These rail lines follow the deep cuts of Beech Creek and the West Branch Susquehanna River, connecting clustered settlements such as Clarence and the company town of Orviston.
