About this map

Elk Hill dominates this Susquehanna County landscape, marked by its distinctive North Knob, South Knob, and the Elk Hill Fire Tower. The area is characterized by a series of small, long-standing settlements like Clifford, Dundaff, and Elkdale that serve as focal points for a network of country roads. The Milford and Owego Turnpike Rd cuts diagonally through the terrain, tracing a historical transportation route that connects West Clifford to the surrounding highlands.

Water plays a central role in the local geography, with Crystal Lake and Lake Idlewild providing significant landmarks alongside the meandering courses of Tunkhannock Cr and its various branches. Local aviation is represented by the Cosklos Elkview Airport near Mud Pond, while the numerous family-named roads, such as Scott Rd and Bell Mountain Rd, hint at the deep-rooted genealogical history of these rural Pennsylvania townships.
