About this map

The Cacapon River winds through the heart of this Appalachian landscape, anchoring the settlement of Capon Bridge. This 2011 survey details the complex ridge-and-valley topography of Hampshire County, where family and community heritage is preserved at Capon Chapel Cemetery and Fairview Cemetery. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations like Ice Mountain and Schaffenaker Mountain, which hem in narrow valleys and hollows such as Parks Valley and Frog Hollow.

Water serves as a primary geographic marker, with Edwards Run and Dillons Run feeding the larger river system. Local landmarks including Bubbling Spring and the small cluster at Cold Stream reflect the rural character of the area. The map also identifies recreational and communal points of interest like Camp White Rock and Buffalo Gap Camp, situated among the peaks of Pine Mountain and Georges Peak.
