Breedsville’s center stands about 720 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 660 ft to 780 ft, a difference of 120 ft: gently rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Prospect Hill, about 920 ft, 14 miles southeast.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Shale. Age: Carboniferous, 324 to 359 million years old. About 24 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
