About this map

Triple Divide marks a significant hydrological point in this corner of Potter County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of deep hollows and radiating streams. The small settlement of Brookland serves as a local focal point, anchored by the All Saints Episcopal Church and its adjacent All Saints Episcopal Church Cem. To the north, the community of Gold and the rail-inflected name of Newfield Junction suggest the area's historical transportation patterns.

The terrain is deeply etched by watercourses like Ninemile Run and Pine Creek, which flow through named valleys such as Reese Hollow and Heath Hollow. For those tracing local families, numerous small burial grounds are plotted across the high ground, including Whipple Cem near the northern border and Fox Hill Cem to the east. Extensive trail systems, such as the Susquehannock Trail System Trl, wind through the southern forests, following the natural contours of the steep ridges.
