USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
Lehigh Furnace and Slatedale anchor this Lehigh County landscape, showcasing a region shaped by industrial extraction and small-scale agriculture. The northern portion is dominated by the steep ascent of Blue Mountain, where the Appalachian Trail follows the ridge past Bake Oven Knob. Below the ridge, numerous quarries near Emerald reflect the area's history of slate production, while an old railroad grade winds through the valley, marking the former transport routes that once connected these rural outposts.
