Manatawny Creek and the Schuylkill River define the drainage and settlement patterns of this region along the border of Berks and Montgomery counties. In the north, the landscape is marked by prominent elevations such as Pinnacle Point, Shenkel Hill, and Devils Hump, with the Trout Run Reservoir providing a significant water source near Boyertown. The industrial and transport history of the area is anchored by the Colebrookdale RR, which links several small communities including Bechtelsville and Pine Forge.
