About this map

Deerfield and Little Baltimore sit along the winding Hamilton Br in this part of Augusta County, where the landscape is defined by the sharp transition between valley floors and the ridges of Walker Mountain and Brushy Ridge. The Calfpasture River flows through the southern portion of the quadrangle, passing the settlement at Marble Valley and receiving several local tributaries such as Clayton Mill Cr and Rocky Spring.

Evidence of the region's agricultural character is seen at the Ruleman Turkey Farm near Fridley Cove, while the surrounding terrain is heavily dissected by numerous family-named hollows and drafts. Names like Holloway Draft, Dunlap Hollow, and Kiser Hollow provide clues for genealogists tracking early family settlements in these upland drainages. The topography is further marked by distinct landmarks such as The Bump and Bettys Hill, showcasing the complex drainage patterns of the Benson Run and Hughart Run systems.
