2014 Map of Mount Storm

About this map

North Branch Potomac River forms the state boundary here between Maryland and West Virginia, carving a deep valley that defines the local geography. Along the ridge lines and creek valleys, small settlements such as Emoryville, Sulphur City, and Hartmansville dot the landscape, connected by a network of winding county roads like Hartmansville Rd. The area is characterized by significant topographic relief, anchored by the Allegheny Front and high points like Mount Pisgah and Number 7 Hill. Family history is deeply rooted in this terrain, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds including Kalbaugh Cem, Kitzmiller Cem, and Evans Cem. Water features such as Abram Cr and Stony River flow through the valleys, while the Fore Knobs provide a dramatic backdrop to the south, illustrating the transition from river bottom to high mountain ridges.
