The rugged eastern slopes of the South Mountain range dominate this 1951 landscape, where the Michaux State Forest and a series of state game refuges cover much of the high ground. The Appalachian Trail winds along the ridge tops past landmarks like Snowy Mtn and Chimney Rocks, while the lowlands to the east transition into the productive orchard country surrounding Arendtsville and Biglerville. The rail-and-road network of the Western Maryland railroad corridor connects industrial and agricultural sites, including the historic Maria Furnace and several specialized stations.
