About this map

Trout Run serves as a central hub in this Lycoming County landscape, where the Penn Central railroad tracks follow the winding course of Lycoming Creek. The settlement pattern reflects the constraints of the high plateaus, with most activity concentrated in the narrow valleys or along the lower slopes of massive landforms like McIntyre Mountain and Laurel Mountain. In the south, the community around Gamble preserves local history through the Rose Valley School and Rose Valley Cemetery.

Public land management is a defining feature of the area, with vast tracts designated as the Tiadaghton State Forest and State Game Lands No 133. These protected areas cover numerous family-named hollows and ridges, such as Yoder Hollow and Kinney Ridge, suggesting a history of early mountain homesteading. The map also records early-1970s infrastructure updates, including the Radio Tower on Cornwell Mountain.
