1948 Map of Keating Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Keating Summit stands at a high elevation point in the late 1940s, marking a significant rail and water divide along the Pennsylvania railroad line. This survey captures a deeply dissected landscape where the Allegheny River and Portage Creek have carved intricate valley systems, dictating the placement of small settlements and transportation routes. Narrow hollows like Planing Mill Hol and Slabtown Hollow suggest the area's historical reliance on timber and small-scale industry, while the Fire Tower atop Fox Mountain and the peak of Lookout Mountain emphasize the high-relief topography of the McKean and Potter County border. The map illustrates a moment before significant modern highway expansion, showing the original footprints of rural communities such as Liberty, Wrights, and the village of Odin.
