2023 Map of Carroll

About this map

Carroll and the neighboring settlement of Eastville sit within the high-altitude cradle of Sugar Valley, a landscape defined by the parallel ridges of the central Pennsylvania mountains. This 2023 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the region, where the Church of Brethren Cem and Mount Union Cem mark the heritage of local families. The terrain is a series of dramatic gaps and ridges, with water flowing through Fishing Creek and the headwaters of White Deer Hole Creek. The map shows a region heavily integrated with public lands, as evidenced by the extensive network of the Tiadaghton State Forest Snowmobile Trails Trl and the Bald Eagle State Forest Snowmobile Trails Trl that crisscross Nippenose Mountain and North White Deer Ridge. This contemporary record captures the intersection of forestry, recreation, and small-town settlement in the Appalachian interior.
