The Susquehanna River dominates this landscape as it flows through the Conejohela Valley, marked by the massive engineering of the Safe Harbor Dam. On the eastern shore, the confluence with the Conestoga River sits near the historic river crossing at Shenks Ferry. The map shows a transition from the agricultural uplands around Washington Boro and Central Manor to the riverfront communities of Safe Harbor and Lockport. Genealogists and local historians can trace the network of old roads like Letort Rd and Safe Harbor Rd connecting small settlements such as Creswell, Indiantown, and Highville. Notable landmarks include Springville Cemetery near Long Level, and several river islands such as Indian Rock Island and Weise Island that have long defined the character of this stretch of the river.
