2023 Map of Twelvemile Pond

About this map

Twelvemile Pond and its surrounding wetlands form the center of this high-plateau landscape along the Pike and Monroe county line. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of marshes and water bodies, including Big Swamp, Elbow Swamp, and Turner Swamp, which feed into the Bush Kill and Beaver Run. This environment reflects the glaciated history of the Poconos, where numerous ponds like Minks Pond and Lehman Lake are interspersed with distinct ridges such as Big Ridge and Flat Ridge.
