2023 Map of Blossburg

About this map

The Tioga River carves a central path through this landscape, flanked by the coal-country settlements of Blossburg and Morris Run. The terrain is deeply grooved by narrow hollows such as Copp Hollow and Limekiln Hollow, while the surrounding heights of South Mountain and Huckleberry Mountain hem in the river valley. The region's community heritage is remarkably well-preserved in its concentration of burial grounds, with at least nine distinct sites including the Saint Mary's Cem, Arbon Cem, and the Swedish Lutheran Cem near Arnot. These sites, along with the Morris Run Reservoir, reflect the established social and industrial infrastructure of the Tioga County coal fields. The road network, including the Appalachian Throughway and Bloss Mountain Rd, follows the natural contours of the steep slopes, connecting these historically significant mining and timber hamlets.
