The Schuylkill River and Little Schuylkill River converge near Port Clinton, carving a deep gap through the prominent ridges of Blue Mountain and South Mountain. This 1945 landscape is defined by the legacy of the Reading railroad and an Old Railroad Grade that follow the river bends, connecting settlements like Auburn and Landingville. The ridge-top path of the Appalachian Trail traces the boundary between Schuylkill Co and Berks Co, looking down upon a series of rural valley schools including Tunnel Sch and Mangel Sch. In the southern half of the map, the terrain softens into the farm country of Upper Bern and Tilden, where local life centered around rural congregations at St Michaels Ch and Salem Ch.
