2023 Map of Lonaconing

On the higher elevations, family and parish histories are preserved in numerous hilltop burial grounds, including Saint Marys Cem and the Winter-Clise Cem. The terrain rises sharply toward the east to Dans Mtn, where landmarks such as Dans Rock and Wolf Rock look out over the North Branch Potomac River valley. This 2023 survey provides a modern view of these long-established mountain settlements, showing the persistent footprint of mountain hamlets like Klondike and Detmold alongside critical water infrastructure like the Lonaconing Reservoir.
