The width of the valley varies from 10 to 15 miles (16 to 24 km) between Tussey Mountain on the east to the chain of Dunning, and Mountains on the west. Almost entirely enclosed by these mountains, the only openings in the cove are at Loysburg Gap in the south, McKee Gap in the west, and at Williamsburg to the north. The floor of the valley is mostly level, with many large fertile farm fields. The southern end of the valley drains to the Raystown Branch Juniata River via Yellow Creek through Loysburg Gap, and the northern end drains to the Frankstown Branch, via Clover Creek. There are four boroughs located in Morrisons Cove and they are:
