1966 Map of Tidioute

About this map

Tidioute anchors this mid-century topographic survey, situated at a sharp bend in the Allegheny River where Tidioute Creek meets the main channel. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the timber and petroleum industries, shown through numerous oil wells and gas wells scattered across the highlands of the Allegheny National Forest. The river itself is punctuated by distinct landmarks like Tidioute Island, Siggis Island, and Courson Island, with Tidioute Eddy and Courson Eddy marking traditional river navigation points.
