About this map

Blacklog Mountain and Shade Mountain dominate this landscape, creating the characteristic linear ridges and narrow valleys of south-central Pennsylvania. The early 1940s infrastructure is headlined by the newly constructed Pennsylvania Turnpike, which cuts through the southern terrain near Burnt Cabins and Ft Littleton. This modern thoroughfare contrasts sharply with the established agrarian network of one-room schoolhouses like Wood-Cutting Sch and local industry sites such as Kuhns Mill and Hoovers Mill.
