About this map

Mount Jewett serves as the primary population center in this portion of McKean County, where residential streets like Kushequa Ave and Oberg Ave meet the local plateau geography. The region's deep connection to the energy industry is evident through the widespread Guffey Oil Field, Halsey Gas Field, and Burning Well Oil Field, illustrating the historical and modern importance of resource extraction in the Pennsylvania wilds.

South of town, the terrain rises toward Seven Mile Summit, while the drainage of the W Br Clarion River and S Br Kinzua Cr shapes the settlement patterns at crossroads like Lantz Corners and Kanesholm. Several smaller communities and family-named locales, including Coontown, Freeman, and Halsey, are linked by a network of forest roads and historic routes such as Guffey Rd, reflecting a landscape defined by both timber harvesting and industrial development.
