About this map

The boundary between Cameron and Elk Counties bisects this landscape of deep hollows and narrow stream valleys. The primary settlement corridor follows West Creek along the northern edge, where Route 120 links the communities of Truman, Howard Siding, and the village of West Creek. This valley floor contrasts sharply with the dissected plateaus to the south, which are defined by a complex network of drainage systems including Hicks Run and Bell Draft.

Upland landmarks such as Whittimore Hill, Bryan Hill, and Moore Hill rise above numerous named ravines like Whippoorwill Hollow and Horning Hollow. The map details a secondary network of mountain roads such as Hicks Run Rd and Moore Hill Rd, which provide access to the more isolated areas near Huston Hill. This documentation of the 2010s terrain provides a clear view of the established transportation routes and topographic features that have shaped local activity in this part of the Pennsylvania wilds.
