About this map

Oswayo Creek and the Oswayo Railroad anchor the valley life of northern Potter County in this 1969 survey. The landscape is defined by a dense network of steep hollows like Turkeypath Hollow and Brizzee Hol, interspersed with widespread energy development. Numerous Gas Wells and the extensive Oswayo Oil and Gas Field reflect the region’s deep ties to resource extraction, while the presence of the County Fairgrounds at Millport suggests a point of community gathering.

Local infrastructure is represented by specialized sites like the Fish Hatchery near the eastern boundary and Adams Airfield to the south. Small rural centers such as Coneville, Clara, and Kibbeville remain connected by winding roads and pipelines that traverse the high ridges. Much of the southern terrain is preserved as State Game Lands No 204, contrasting the industrial activity found in the northern gas fields.
