1960 Map of Snow Shoe SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Beech Creek winds through the forested highlands of the Sproul State Forest, defining a landscape where the extraction economy of the 1960s meets the terrain of the Allegheny Front. The settlement of Orviston sits near the creek's edge, linked by the Penn Central rail line to the mining operations at Kato. Heavy industrial activity is evidenced by numerous strip mines and a tipple on Snow Shoe Mountain, alongside the notable Hogback Tunnel which allowed rail passage through the complex topography.
