1969 Map of Brandywine

Upland features dominate the eastern half of the map, where the Pendleton Co - Rockingham Co line follows high ridges. Hikers and researchers can trace the Maple Spring Trail near Chestnut Ridge or locate the High Knob Lookout Tower atop Dividing Ridge. The transition from the fertile river bottoms to the steep hollows of Richland Mountain and Bethel Mountain illustrates the classic ridge-and-valley geography of the Potomac highlands during the late 1960s.
