2019 Map of Galeton

About this map

The borough of Galeton serves as the focal point of this northern Pennsylvania landscape, situated at the confluence where the West Branch Pine Creek meets Pine Creek. The surrounding terrain of Potter County is defined by an intricate network of deep hollows and ridges, many bearing names that reflect historical land use and local industry, such as Acid Factory Hollow and Slaughterhouse Hollow. Further south, the settlement of Germania sits along Germania Br, surrounded by high points like Bibiana Mtn and Pigeon Hill. A small burial ground, Byam Cem, is located on a rise overlooking the S Br Pine Cr. The map preserves the complex layout of local waterways like Lyman Run and Little Kettle Cr as they cut through the plateau, providing a detailed record of the region's topography and rural road network as it stood in the late 2010s.
