1960 Map of Snow Shoe NW

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a dramatic oxbow through this section of the Sproul State Forest, defining the rugged border between Clinton and Centre counties. The 1960 landscape is largely defined by the timbered ridges and narrow hollows characteristic of the Allegheny Plateau, with the New York Central railroad following the river’s winding course. Notable industrial footprints include a strip mine near Grove Hill and the Black Stump Siding, reflecting the era's reliance on rail transport for resource extraction.
