About this map

Tionesta Lake dominates this landscape, created by the Tionesta Dam which regulates the flow into the Allegheny River. The borough of Tionesta serves as the focal point of the region, situated where the Penn Central tracks trace the river's curve. The map documents an area defined by both its natural resources and its recreational value, including the Allegheny National Forest and Camp Tionesta.

Extensive networks of Gas Wells and Oil Wells are scattered across the terrain, particularly south of Chauncey Creek. These industrial sites sit alongside rural landmarks such as Mt Zion Ch and the Mt Collins Cem on Mt Collins. Small crossroads like Wolfs Corners and Auges Corners provide a look at the dispersed settlement patterns that characterize this part of Forest, Venango, and Clarion counties during the late 1960s.
