About this map

Falls Creek serves as a central hub in this depiction of the Clearfield and Jefferson County border, where a network of valley settlements follows the winding paths of Sandy Lick Cr and Falls Cr. The landscape is defined by its industrial roots, evidenced by names like Adrian Furnace, Coal Glen, and Beechtree. Transportation routes such as the Coal Tipple Rd and the proximity of Erie Junction near Brockway highlight the region's historical reliance on mining and rail logistics.

Upland areas like Smith Summit and McMinns Summit separate the various watersheds, including Rattlesnake Run and Wolf Run. For those interested in local genealogy or land use, the map identifies small residential clusters and landmarks such as Pancoast, Smithtown, and Iselin Heights. The presence of Kyle Lake and the recreational areas near Juniata Lake contrast with the more industrious valley floors, providing a look at how the region's geography has been shaped by both natural waterways and resource extraction.
