2013 Map of Ransom

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through this portion of Wyoming and Lackawanna counties, creating a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and numerous tributaries. Significant water features like Buttermilk Falls and the Falling Springs Reservoir punctuate the terrain, while high points such as Coolbaugh Mountain and Griffin Hill overlook the river's winding course. The settlement pattern is characterized by small, dispersed communities including Mill City and Schultzville in the north, and Ransom and Upper Exeter along the southern riverbank.
