About this map

Orbisonia and Rockhill anchor this 1940 survey of the Ridge-and-Valley Province, where the East Broad Top RR winds through the narrow gaps of Shade Mtn and Blacklog Mtn. The landscape is defined by parallel ridges and the intricate drainage of Aughwick Creek and Sideling Hill Creek. Settled valleys host a high density of rural institutions, from the specialized Wood-Cutting Sch and Laurel Grove Sch to local landmarks like Hoovers Mill and Kuhns Mill.
