About this map

Lyman Run Reservoir and the surrounding Potter County highlands define the landscape of this 2019 survey. The area is characterized by an intricate network of deep drainages, including Splash Dam Hollow, Schoolhouse Hollow, and Water Tank Hollow, which feed into major watercourses like Lyman Run and the W Br Pine Cr. These names suggest a history of early industry and infrastructure, from logging-era splash dams to the water tanks that once served the region's transport or timber needs.

Small settlements such as Corbett, Burrows, and Cherry Springs are connected by a winding network of forest roads and trails, including Cherry Springs Rd and the Alabama Trl. Significant topographic features like Mt Brodhead and the Cherry Springs Vista offer high-elevation perspectives over the plateau. The map also documents numerous family-named hollows, such as Binky Hollow and Jacob Hollow, providing valuable geographical context for genealogists and local historians tracking historical land use in North Central Pennsylvania.
