About this map

Fall Brook and Gleason anchor this mountainous section of Pennsylvania, where high plateaus like Armenia Mtn and Huckleberry Mtn shape the drainage patterns of the Tioga River and its numerous tributaries. The landscape is deeply incised by waters such as Sugar Works Run, Fellows Cr, and Rundall Cr, many of which follow the steep contours of narrow valleys. For local history researchers, the map identifies several significant burial grounds, including Fallbrook Cem and Mcintosh Cem, which are often the last standing markers of earlier settlement activity in these wooded uplands.

A network of local roads like Fallbrook Rd and Gleason Rd winds through the hollows, connecting small clearings and the village of Cedar Ledge. The presence of Fallbrook Falls and features like McIntosh Hollow suggest a terrain that has historically prioritized resource extraction and timbering over large-scale agricultural development. This map provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and natural landmarks as they exist in the modern era.
