About this map

The agrarian and forested ridges of Snyder County are meticulously documented in this 2010 survey. The settlement of Richfield serves as a primary hub, while the village of Mount Pleasant Mills anchors the northeast corner near the North Branch Mahantango Creek. The landscape is defined by a series of parallel ridges and valleys, including Chestnut Ridge, Lime Ridge, and Dresslers Ridge, which dictate the local road network and drainage patterns of the West Branch Mahantango Creek and Quaker Run.

Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint several significant sites, such as Pine Cemetery and Emanuel Cemetery. The map also captures infrastructure ranging from the Beavertown Fire Tower on the northern heights to the Frymoyer Airport in the south. Smaller hamlets like Knousetown, Strouptown, and Oriental are clearly marked, connected by a web of rural routes like Potato Valley Rd and Heister Valley Rd that follow the natural contours of the Central Pennsylvania terrain.
