2016 Map of Hartleton

About this map

Buffalo Mtn and a series of high ridges dominate this landscape in western Union County, where the valley floor transitions into the dense forests of the Appalachian heights. The map highlights a concentration of small communities along the southern reaches, including Hartleton, Swengel, and Millmont, which sit near the banks of Penns Creek and its tributaries. This era of land management is characterized by a high density of named trails and forest roads, such as McCall Field Trl and Old Narrows Trail, providing access to the interior terrain of Hough Mtn and Seven Notch Mtn. Notable water features include the Mifflinburg Reservoir and recreational points like Halfway Lake, along with unique natural landmarks such as The Little Bubbler and The Gooseneck. The Hartleton Cem serves as a significant point for genealogical research in this long-settled rural corridor.
