About this map

Penn Valley serves as the focal point for this orthophoto study, showcasing the agricultural patterns of central Pennsylvania in the late 1970s. The village of Spring Mills sits at a critical bend in the landscape where Penn Creek cuts through the valley floor. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this aerial imagery reveals the precise contour of individual farm fields and woodlots tucked between the prominent ridges of First Mountain and the adjacent Mountain. This perspective provides a rare view of rural land use as it existed before late-twentieth-century development, documenting the relationship between the watercourse and the surrounding limestone valley soil.
