Swatara Creek and its tributary Little Swatara Creek define the landscape south of the Blue Mountain ridge near the turn of the 21st century. The settlement of Jonestown sits at the confluence, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural developments of Bunker Hills and Rockwood. This survey captures a mix of agricultural tradition and modern recreational land use, featuring several organized retreats such as Camp Strause, Camp Carson, and Camp Arewa tucked against the base of Little Mountain. Private aviation is represented by Farmers Pride Airport and Horst Airport, highlighting the regional connectivity of this Pennsylvania interior. The presence of the Hamlin Cemetery near the eastern edge and various golf courses, including Freeport Mills Golf Course, illustrates the evolution of land use from strictly agrarian to diverse community spaces.
