2019 Map of Great Bend

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a sharp path through the northern reaches of the Pennsylvania-New York border, defining the landscape between Great Bend and Hallstead. This modern terrain profile illustrates how the river's winding course created prominent landforms like Island Plain and Woodbridge Island, which stand in contrast to the surrounding peaks of Maunatome Mtn and Smokey Mtn. To the south, the village of New Milford sits along the Salt Lick Creek valley, connected to upland hamlets such as Lewis Corners and Brushville. Local history is anchored by rural landmarks including Highland Cem and Maple Ridge Cem, alongside several small bodies of water like Brushville Lake and Fullers Lake that dot the high ridges of Susquehanna County.
