Broad Mountain or Broad Ridge in the Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians in Carbon County and Schuylkill County in Eastern Pennsylvania is a steep-faced, anthracite-bearing barrier ridge just south of both Beaver Meadows and Weatherly, north of Nesquehoning and west and south of the Lehigh River basin west of the southwest border of the Poconos). The mountain ridge line is mostly flat and looks very similar to the man-made piles of culm in the region from the roads and towns looking up.

  • Broad Mountain had a large importance in local Rail Transportation. The Nesquehoning Creek rises steeply along its southern face to traverse the mountain pass occupied by today's Hometown sitting in a saddle between it and Nesquehoning Ridge. *Paralleling both to the south across Nesquehoning Creek, are Rt-54, and the RBMN railroad, successor to the Lehigh and Susquehanna Railroad and its lessee, the Central Railroad of New Jersey. *Above the North-face, the stream valleys hosted the Beaver Meadows Railroad, later the oldest part of the fabled Lehigh Valley Railroad .
