USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Industrial activity and rural Appalachian settlements define this landscape along the border of Jefferson and Clearfield Counties in the mid-1960s. Falls Creek serves as a prominent rail junction, where the Pennsylvania and Baltimore and Ohio lines converge near Adrian Furnace. The map illustrates the intensive land use of the era, dominated by numerous strip mines that weave through the ridges between Little Toby Creek and Sandy Lick Creek.
