About this map

Maria Furnace and the neighboring settlement of Iron Springs anchor the southeastern corner of this landscape, where the ridges of South Mountain meet the valley drainage of Toms Cr. This 2013 survey illustrates a region defined by its timbered uplands and water management, featuring both the Waynesboro Reservoir and Carbaugh Reservoir. The terrain is punctuated by significant landmarks like the Snowy Mountain Fire Tower and the boulder field known as Devils Racecourse.

Modern recreation and heritage sites are prominent throughout the quadrangle, from the Old Forge Picnic Area and Camp Penn to the Carroll Valley Resort Golf Course near Charnita Lake. The map details a network of named peaks and ridges, including Jacks Mountain, Pine Mountain, and Buzzard Park, alongside smaller communities such as Mount Hope, Tartown, and Virginia Mills. Local roads like Old Forge Rd and Cold Springs Rd provide access through the dense topography and along the numerous runs and creeks that feed the E Br Antietam Cr.
