Waynesboro serves as the primary urban center in this southern Franklin County landscape, where the dense grid of the town gives way to the agricultural and wooded slopes of the South Mountain region. The West Branch Antietam Creek and its tributaries, such as Red Run and Biesecker Run, define the drainage patterns between the various peaks and gaps. The map captures the significant presence of the Pennsylvania State University - Mount Alto Campus at Mont Alto, established on the site of a historic iron furnace operation. Numerous smaller settlements and rural crossroads like Quincy, Tomstown, and Five Forks are scattered across the valley, while the higher elevations are marked by distinctive landmarks such as The Narrows, Eagle Rock, and the Meeting of the Pines Natural Area. This 2010 survey reflects a mix of established residential areas and the enduring natural preserves of the Pennsylvania highlands.
