About this map

Tiadaghton State Forest dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, where the waters of Loyalsock Creek cut through the terrain near Bar Bottom Hollow. The southern portion of the quadrangle shows the transition into settled township lands, including the communities of Huntersville and Fairfield Center. Local history is preserved in the network of rural institutions like Heilman Ch, St James Ch, and the Church of the Good Shepherd, alongside markers like the Huntersville Trinity Cem.

The presence of the Long Ridge Lookout Tower and multiple Grange Halls suggests a community organized around forestry management and agricultural cooperation. Small-scale industrial and recreational infrastructure is evident through the notation of Ski Lifts and a Pumping Station. Numerous family-named ridges and knobs, such as Dickey Knob and Burns Knob, define the high ground between the drainage basins of Plunketts Creek and Mill Creek.
