Loyalhanna Creek winds through the northwest corner of this Westmoreland County landscape, anchoring the borough of Ligonier. The map documents a rugged transition from the valley floor to the high ridges of Laurel Mountain, where the Laurel Mountain Park and Laurel Mountain Village sit along the boundary with Somerset County. The terrain is defined by numerous water features and hollows, including Lettie Shaffer Hollow and Silver Mine Hollow, as well as several reservoirs like the Ligonier Township Reservoir. Local history is preserved in the location of several family and community burial grounds, such as Valley Cem and Penrod Cem. The map also captures former industrial footprints at California Furnace and significant geological landmarks like Wolf Rocks and Ninety Foot Rocks.
