About this map

The North Branch Patapsco River valley in central Maryland is defined by the early 1950s expansion of Liberty Lake, which winds through the landscape east of Gamber and Louisville. This period of hydrological change reshaped the rural character of southeastern Carroll County, where small crossroads like Oklahoma and Sheryettes Corner remained connected by Liberty Road. To the south, the extensive grounds of the Springfield State Hospital dominate the outskirts of Sykesville, while the Baltimore and Ohio RR tracks follow the river's edge.
