1970 Map of Weedville
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
Benezette and Weedville anchor this 1970s landscape within the Elk State Forest, reflecting a mountain economy shaped by the winding Bennett Branch of Sinnemahoning Creek. The map documents a transition in local industry, showing numerous Gas Wells and active Strip Mines alongside the older Old RR Grade and Conrail lines. Local heritage is preserved in the location of the Mt Zion Ch and Gray Cem, while the rugged geography is carved by countless watercourses like Medix Run and Trout Run. The presence of State Game Lands No 34 and Moshanon State Forest indicates the area's enduring character as a managed wilderness, where the legacy of timber and coal extraction meets modern resource management.
