About this map

Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site anchors the southern edge of this landscape, marking the historic transition point between the Little Conemaugh River valley and the upland ridges. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of the South Branch Blacklick Creek and the S Br Blacklick Cr, which carve through the plateau between Nanty Glo and Revloc.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground and narrow valleys, ranging from the concentrated streets of Cardiff and Mundys Corner to smaller locales like Wesley Chapel and Mineral Point. Local history is visible in the placement of Saint Marys Cem and Saint Pauls Cem, while the industrial and transport infrastructure is represented by the Saltlick Reservoir and the Ebensburg Airport located near Beula.
