Lykens and Gratz anchor this map of central Pennsylvania, where the landscape transitions from the residential grids of the coal region to the narrow valleys and ridges of the Appalachians. The drainage pattern of Wiconisco Creek and its many tributaries, such as Big Run and Rattling Creek, dictates the location of settlements like Dayton. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex around Short Mountain and Round Top, separated by numerous seasonal and perennial runs including Smoke Hole Run and Nine O'Clock Run. Local history is preserved in the location of Calvary Cemetery and Fairview Cemetery, while the network of roads like Indian Trail Rd and Lykens Rd provides a detailed view of modern access across this varied terrain.
