The map above shows who controls the surface use of Clarence Moore tracts in the Loyalsock State Forest. DCNR is highlighted in yellow, and the mineral rights' owner (in this case Anadarko and one other corporation) is highlighted in blue.
The Northeast corner of this particular section of the state forest is missing from the map. The missing portion contains the Devil's Elbow Natural Area, which has headwaters for the North Branch of Rock Run. It also has large marshes and healthy hemlock stands. It is entirely in yellow and therefore, we believe, under DCNR surface control.
