USGS Topo · Published 1994About this map
Blue Mountain dominates the northern landscape, where the Appalachian National Scenic Trail winds past high points like The Pinnacle and Pulpit Rock. Below these ridges, the river-and-rail corridor along the Schuykill River defines the growth of Hamburg and Shoemakersville. The prominence of the Reading Railroad tracks following the river highlights the importance of this valley for mid-century transportation and industry.
