The Tamaqua borough serves as the focal point of this mid-1990s survey, where the Little Schuylkill River and Panther Creek meet at the base of Sharp Mountain. This landscape is defined by the high ridges of the Anthracite Uplands, including Nesquehoning Mountain and Mauch Chunk Ridge, which hem in a dense corridor of mining and rail history. Evidence of the region's industrial heritage is everywhere, from the Strip Mine excavations near Coaldale to the Arlington Yards rail infrastructure.
