About this map

The confluence of Little Pine Creek and Pine Creek anchors the village of Waterville, a focal point in this portion of Lycoming County. The landscape is defined by the dramatic incision of the Pine Creek Gorge, where the water snakes around sharp bends below Houselander Mtn and Puterbaugh Mtn. Settlement is largely confined to the narrow valley floors, with the community of Ramsey situated along a prominent horseshoe bend.

Genealogists will find significant local-history value in the distribution of family and community burial sites, including the Waterville Methodist Episcopal Cem, Old English Run Cem, and Tombs Run Cem. The upland terrain, characterized by high plateaus like East Hill and deep drainages such as Broughton Hollow and Hell Hollow, remains largely undeveloped, occupied by features like Blackwell Swamp and a network of forestry and access roads like Dam Run RD and Ramsey RD.
