About this map

Kittatinny Mountain and Blue Mountain dominate the northern landscape of this Pennsylvania quadrangle, creating the steep-walled Horse Valley where Cedar Lake and Conodoguinet Creek originate. The transition from these high ridges to the valley floor is marked by the presence of Letterkenny Reservoir on Pine Run, a vital water resource for the surrounding Lurgan Township area.

Settlement patterns in the early 21st century remain concentrated around historic crossroads like Roxbury, Upper Strasburg, and Pleasant Hall. The southern portion of the map is defined by an extensive grid of specialized infrastructure roads, including Missile Rd, Fuse Rd, and Rocket Rd, which contrast sharply with the traditional agricultural lanes found near Lurgan. Local aviation is represented by the small Spud View Airport, situated between the ridges and the network of meandering streams like Lehman Run and Keasey Run.
