About this map

Montrose serves as the focal point for this Susquehanna County region, featuring essential civic structures including the Courthouse, Po, and Library. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a high concentration of Quarry sites and Quarries, illustrating the local reliance on stone extraction. Small rural settlements like Fairdale, Bumps Corners, and Snows Mill are connected by a network of winding valley roads and creeks.

Water features dominate the southern terrain, where Big Elk Lake, Little Elk Lake, and Elk Lake cluster near the settlement of Louden Hill. For genealogists and local historians, several burial grounds are preserved, including North Hill Cem, Fair Hill Cem, and Prospect Hill Cem. The presence of the Zaverton Airport and Holy Name of Mary Ch provides further evidence of the area's mid-century community infrastructure.
