I have added two right of way maps of the Connellsville-Uniontown area based
on my "armchair" research. I have never visited this area and I am looking
forward to the tour this Friday. These are based on my research using
pennpilot aerials, old maps, West Penn books and digital elevation data.
They may need to be updated with information Ed provides on Friday. If you
have an iPhone or gps enabled iPad you can use Avenza PDF Maps app to view
the maps with your location in the field.
