2023 Map of Conowingo Dam

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the borderlands of Maryland and Pennsylvania, acting as the primary geographic driver for the local network of ferries and small riverside hamlets. This landscape is defined by its transition from the steep river bluffs at Wildcat Point to the upland farming communities of Darlington and Berkley. The river crossing at Bald Friar Ferry historically connected these banks long before modern infrastructure, while the current topography reveals the industrial footprint at Conowingo Village. Numerous small cemeteries, such as the Deer Creek Friends Meeting Cem and Rock Springs Baptist Church Cem, are scattered across the ridges, serving as vital records of early Quaker and Baptist settlement patterns. Small water bodies like Octoraro Lakes and the winding course of Conowingo Creek drain the surrounding heights into the main river channel.
