About this map

The U S Naval Proving Ground dominates the eastern landscape along the Potomac River, featuring an extensive military infrastructure including the Burgess Airfield and the Potomac River Bridge (Toll) connecting to Maryland. Away from the shoreline, the interior of King George County is defined by a dense network of small communities and rural landmarks. Settlements such as Berthaville, Owens, and Tetotum are linked by the Blue and Star Memorial Highway, while the landscape is punctuated by local spiritual centers like Little Ark Ch and Union Bethel Ch.
