About this map

Muncy Creek carves a central valley through this Lycoming County landscape, anchoring the borough of Picture Rocks and the nearby villages of Tivoli and Glen Mawr. The topography is defined by significant ridges and hollows, including Ticklish Rock and the high ground of Frantz Hill. Historically, the settlement pattern follows the water and road corridors, with clusters of development at Bryan Mill and Villa Grove.

Upland areas are characterized by recreational and seasonal sites such as Highland Lake, Crystal Lake, and Wild Rice Lake, along with camps like Dunwoody Camp and Camp Genesee. The transit network relies on routes like Highland Lake Rd and the Genesee Trl, connecting these isolated water bodies to the more densely populated valley floor. Local heritage is preserved in details like the cemetery near Picture Rocks and numerous named hollows like Barto Hollow Rd and Holmes Hollow Rd.
