About this map

West Branch Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through Clinton County, anchoring a landscape where river-level settlements meet a high-elevation network of mountain trails. Along the river banks, the historical communities of Farrandsville and Riverview are situated near the mouth of Lick Run, while further upstream, Ferney and East Ferney mark the narrow corridor shared by Renovo Rd and the water. The surrounding terrain is defined by steep ridges and deep drainage hollows like Buckhorn Hollow and Bear Willow Hollow.

Modern recreation has repurposed the logging and transport routes of earlier eras, with the Hyner Mountain Snowmobile Trails Trl and Beech Creek Snowmobile Trails Trl crisscrossing the high ridges. This map also tracks the Susquehanna River Water Trail - West Branch Trl as it follows the river's path. From the heights of Round Top to the confluence of Tangascootack Creek, the map details a region transitioning from its industrial river-front roots to a dedicated forest recreation area.
