Red diamonds mark confluences in our Chesapeake Watershed. These are calibration flowsites for the Chesapeake Bay Program's Phase 5 watershed model. Click a diamond to see a bubble with name, coordinates, and a link to the USGS data for that site. Gold diamonds mark the sites of CHEARS workshops and other CHEARS activities. Blue line shows a kayak route from Saxton PA (red diamond), near Wild Meadows Farm (gold diamond), along the Raystown Branch of the Juniata River to the Susquehanna confluence at Duncannon PA (click button to zoom there!), to the Chesapeake Bay, across to the Delaware Bay, then down the inland waterway to the Peace Smuggler home of CHEARS on Chincoteague Island, VA (gold diamond). Double click anywhere between the markers to center and zoom on that point, and drag the map to pan. You can also use controls on the left to zoom and pan, or drag the rectangle within the overview map at lower right. To change from physical terrain map mode to satellite or normal map mode, select "Satellite" or "Map" button at upper right, then "Terrain" to return to the physical view. When in satellite mode you can turn labels off and on with a checkbox. In the textbox below the map, enter a town and state, and click the button to jump to that address. You can enter a specific street address if you like. The map will be centered on that specific address, which will be increasingly visible as you zoom in by clicking "+" several times, or dragging the slider. Double-clicking anywhere on the map zooms you itoward the point at whichyou double-clicked. As you zoom, distance scale at lower left adjusts automatically.
