About this map

The boundary between Susquehanna and Lackawanna counties bisects this landscape, dominated by the prominent heights of Elk Hill with its North Knob and South Knob peaks. The settlement of Clifford serves as a local hub near the East-Branch Tunkhannock Creek, while the historic community of Dundaff sits further east, once a significant stop on early turnpikes.

Genealogists can find several family-named burial grounds, including the Clifford Cem, Dundaff Cem, and the Burdick Cem near Tinker Hill. The geography is defined by a series of water bodies such as Crystal Lake and Lake Idlewild, along with the industrial footprint of a Quarry and the Cosklos Elkview Airport near the southern border. The road network traces older routes like the Old Newburg Tpke, illustrating the region's long-standing connection to regional trade corridors.
