2019 Map of Hazel Hurst

About this map

Mount Jewett and the surrounding high country of the Allegheny Plateau are defined by deep drainage systems and early industrial corridors. The map traces the upper reaches of the East Branch Clarion River as it flows south toward the McKean and Elk County line near Williamsville. The landscape is heavily carved by a series of hollows, including Wildcat Hollow, Slick Hollow, and Shingle Mill Hollow, which speak to the timbering history of this region. Settlement patterns follow the narrow valley floors and ridgelines, with Hazel Hurst and Marvindale positioned along Marvin Creek. Evidence of former infrastructure is visible in the Railroad Grade Rd, which follows the contours of the terrain through Wildcat Hollow. To the east, Bishops Summit marks a significant high point, while the Cathrine Swamp and various runs like Sevenmile Run and Gum Boot Run illustrate the complex hydrology of this high-altitude watershed.
