2016 Map of Wertzville

About this map

Wertzville and the southern slopes of Blue Mountain dominate this landscape where the Cumberland and Perry County borders meet. The map reveals a transition from the dense ridges of Cove Mtn and Little Mountain to the more open valley floor shaped by the winding Conodoguinet Creek and its southern tributaries like Sears Run. Human navigation is defined by long-standing mountain crossings such as Millers Gap, Lambs Gap, and Degns Gap, which serve as vital links between the rural settlements of Dellville to the north and the growing residential corridors near the Susquehanna River. Significant recreational and local markers include the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, the Tuscarora Trail, and small aviation sites like Haunstein Airport, illustrating how the valley's agrarian roots at Hustons Mill coexist with modern utility and transit infrastructure.
