USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The ridge-and-valley terrain of central Pennsylvania dominates this landscape, where the coal-mining heritage of the northern Dauphin County anthracite region is clearly visible. Parallel ridges of Short Mountain, Big Lick Mountain, and Berry Mountain frame the settled valleys of Wiconisco Creek. The industrial footprint is evident in the strip mines scarring the slopes and the large Tailings Pond located near the borough of Lykens.
