2023 Map of Hillsgrove

About this map

Hillsgrove lies at the confluence of Loyalsock Creek and Mill Creek, anchoring a landscape defined by deep watercuts and high timberlands in the central Pennsylvania wilds. This 2023 survey illustrates the rugged geography of the Loyalsock Creek Gorge and the Kettle Creek Gorge, where small settlements like Ogdonia and Wissingers sit along narrow valley floors. The map details an extensive network of recreational routes, including the Loyalsock Trl and various snowmobile trails through the Loyalsock State Forest. Local history and genealogy are preserved at sites such as Hillsgrove Cem and Bear Mountain Cem. Further up the ridges, features like Hoagland Vista and Dry Run Falls mark the dramatic change in elevation, while the naming of Coal Mine Rd near Scar Run points to the area's extraction history. The boundary between Sullivan Co and Lycoming Co cuts across the southwestern portion, tracing the height of land near Rough Hill.
