The Delaware River corridor defines this landscape, where the historic Delaware and Raritan Canal on the New Jersey side and the Pennsylvania Canal on the opposite bank trace the path of nineteenth-century industrial transport. This contemporary survey shows the river's character through its many islands, including Hendrick Island, Eagle Island, and Holcombe Island. The interior of Hunterdon County is marked by a network of rural settlements such as Sergeantsville, Locktown, and Sandy Ridge, connected by winding roads that cross waterways like Wickecheoke Creek and Plum Brook. Local history is preserved in small burial grounds like Rosemont Cem and Barber Cem, while the southern edge shows the more densely developed area around Lambertville and the high ground of Mt Gilboa. Small aviation fields like The Landing Airport and the Fly-N-D Landing Strip dot the northern fields, illustrating the mix of agricultural and modern land use.
