About this map

Michaux State Forest covers this high-altitude terrain at the intersection of Adams, Franklin, and Cumberland Counties. The landscape is defined by the steep ridges of South Mountain, including Big Pine Flat Ridge and Snaggy Ridge, which channel water into numerous runs and reservoirs. Central to this area is Caledonia Park, a focal point for the region's public land history, and the Caledonia Water Company Pond located near the base of Rocky Mountain.

The eastern portion of the map transitions into the Buchanan Valley, where human settlement is anchored by the Saint Ignatius Loyola Catholic Church and its accompanying Saint Ignatius Loyola Catholic Church Cem. Evidence of historical industry is present at Orebank Hill and a specific Quarry on the slopes of Quarry Gap Hill. Modern infrastructure like the Long Pine Run Reservoir sits tucked behind Wigwam Hill, illustrating the ongoing importance of the local watershed.
