About this map

Walker Lake and the Middle Creek Dam sit at the center of this rural Snyder County landscape, which transitions from the steep slopes of Booney Mountain and Front Mountain in the north toward the valley floor. Small settlements and rural hamlets like Troxelville, Port Ann, and Benfer are connected by a network of backroads, including Troxelville Rd and Middle Rd. The southern portion of the sheet is anchored by the borough of Beavertown, situated near the headwaters of Wetzel Run.

Evidence of the region's agricultural and local infrastructure is found in landmarks like the Union Cemetery and the Beaver Springs Airport. The terrain is defined by prominent ridges such as Firestone Ridge and Thomas Ridge, while the northern border along Penns Creek includes the communities of Glen Iron and Laurel Park. This topographic study documents the drainage patterns of Moyers Mill Run and North Branch Middle Creek as they weave through the long-established valleys of central Pennsylvania.
