USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Frankstown and its surrounding river valley are defined by the convergence of the Frankstown Branch Juniata River and the industrial infrastructure of the early 1960s. The landscape reflects a legacy of extraction and transportation, with numerous quarries, gravel pits, and claypits scattered along the flanks of Brush Mountain and Lock Mountain. The Penn Central railroad tracks parallel the waterway, serving as a primary corridor through a region marked by small settlements like Geeseytown, Reese, and Royer.
