1967 Map of Mount Storm Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Mount Storm Lake and the Stony River dominate this high-elevation landscape on the border of Grant and Tucker counties. During the late 1960s, the region was defined by its industrial activity and rugged topography, where the Western Maryland railroad winds through the hills to serve numerous extractive sites. Traces of the coal industry are everywhere, from the tipple and strip mines near Dobbin Ridge to the gas well on Cherry Run. The natural environment remains prominent, featuring the sweeping Canaan Valley, the marshy Elder Swamp, and the dramatic Allegheny Front. Cultural markers like Camp Seventy-two and the Stony River Dam sit alongside family-named water bodies such as Helmick Run and Morgan Run, reflecting a decade of utility-driven development and traditional Appalachian land use.
