2019 Map of Keating

About this map

Sinnemahoning Creek flows southeastward through a deeply dissected plateau to its confluence with the West Branch Susquehanna River at the small settlement of Keating. This region of Clinton County is defined by a complex network of steep hollows and narrow ridges, such as Bushley Ridge and Savage Mtn. The map documents the presence of Bitumen and Cooks Run, along with the Saint Marys Catholic Cem perched on a high bench overlooking the river valley. The landscape is heavily marked by forestry and early industrial access roads like Cole Run Rd and Renovo Rd. In the north, Kettle Creek Lake occupies the valley bottom, surrounded by numerous named drainages including Summerson Run and Honey Run. These watercourses and their associated hollows, like Wildcat Hollow and Buckhorn Hollow, illustrate the intricate drainage patterns that have shaped the central Pennsylvania highlands.
