2013 Map of Mount Union

About this map

The Juniata River carves a deep path through the Ridge and Valley province of central Pennsylvania, anchored by the industrial and transport hub of Mount Union. This corridor, dominated by the William Penn Hwy and the historical movement of goods through the gaps of Jacks Narrows, links several riverside settlements including Mapleton and Mill Creek. The map documents a landscape where industry and topography meet, evidenced by the location of Lucy Furnace and the winding course of Raystown Br Juniata River near the edge of Raystown Lake. Further inland, family and place-named features like Smith Valley, Hill Valley, and Bark Ridge reflect the agricultural and rural character that persists away from the river banks. From the Corbin Bridge crossing to the Mountain Hide-Away Airport, the survey provides a detailed record of the road networks and watercourses, such as Saddler Cr and Hares Valley Cr, that define Huntingdon County’s terrain.
