2013 Map of New Baltimore

About this map

The Raystown Br Juniata River meanders through the northern reaches of this Somerset County landscape, mirroring the path of major transportation infrastructure. The Allegheny Tunnel serves as a critical passage through the high ridges, while the small settlement of New Baltimore sits at a crossing point of the river’s northern branch. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Bearwallow Mountain and natural passages such as Deeters Gap, which influenced the placement of rural communities including Glade, Glen Savage, and Dividing Ridge. The drainage patterns are intricate, with numerous named waterways like Little Wills Cr, Wolf Camp Run, and Hillegas Run carving through the valley floors. These streams and gaps dictated the historical development of local connectors like New Baltimore Rd and Imgrund Mountain Rd, which link the scattered mountain hamlets.
