1964 Map of Chicora
USGS Topo · Published 1993About this map
Industrial activity and rural settlement patterns intersect across the Butler and Armstrong County line in this western Pennsylvania landscape. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of gas and oil wells, interspersed with extensive strip mine operations and significant areas of reclaimed strip mine land. The B & O RR corridor supports established communities like Karns City and Chicora, while the rugged valley of Sugar Creek winds toward Bradys Bend in the northeast. This area shows a complex transition from traditional extraction to modern land use, featuring the Ridgeview Country Club alongside active tipple sites and long-standing institutions like the Home for the Aged. Small hamlets such as Kepples Corners and Rattigan serve as focal points for the surrounding agricultural and industrial workforce, connected by a network of local roads and prominent utility pipelines.
