USGS Topo · Published 1989About this map
Mount Carmel and Kulpmont anchor a landscape defined by the anthracite coal industry and the steep ridges of the Pennsylvania coal region. The terrain is dominated by the parallel rises of Little Mountain, Big Mountain, and Locust Mountain, with settlements like Marion Heights and Atlas clustered along the valleys. Traces of industrial infrastructure are evident in the Conrail lines threading through Locust Summit and Mt Carmel Junction, serving the various mine operations that shaped these communities.
