1959 Map of The Knobs

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Moshannon State Forest covers the majority of this landscape in the late 1950s, a rugged expanse defined by high ridges and deep stream cuts. The terrain is dominated by prominent elevations like Old Round Top and Chestnut Ridge, while the central portion is notable for the Knobs Lookout Tower, which provides a vital oversight point for this wooded territory. Water drainage is intricate, with Mosquito Creek and Gifford Run carving through the plateau, creating a complex network of runs and creeks including Duck Marshes and Little Sandy Run.
