About this map

Catoctin Mountain dominates the western half of this Frederick County landscape, where the Catoctin Recreational Demonstration Area preserves the wooded slopes of Bobs Hill and Black Rock. This mid-century survey captures the region's diverse rural economy, from the industrial heritage at Catoctin Furnace to the extensive aquatic infrastructure of the Lewistown State Fish Hatchery and numerous private fish ponds scattered along Hunting Creek.
