USGS Topo · Published 1994About this map
The industrial coal-mining landscape of Somerset and Cambria counties is revealed in this 1971 study, focusing on the borough of Windber. The map documents a significant era of transition, where active mining sites like Mine Dumps and Tipples sit alongside extensive areas marked as Reclaimed Strip Mines. This reclamation effort is particularly visible around Rummel and Scalp Level, showing the early 1970s push to manage the environmental footprint of Pennsylvania's bituminous coal fields.
