Stony River and the high-altitude Mount Storm Lake define this industrial and natural landscape on the eastern edge of the Allegheny Front. The map illustrates the 1960s-era intersection of resource extraction and power generation, anchored by a powerplant, substation, and numerous strip mines that scar the ridges. The complex terrain of Cabin Mountain and Brown Mountain falls away into the headwaters of the Blackwater River and the Little Canaan River, where isolated sites like Camp Seventytwo and Elder Swamp sit far from the main transport corridors. Significant infrastructure including the Western Maryland railroad and a network of pipelines cross the rugged topography of Dobbin Ridge and Timberman Ridge, tracing the paths required to move energy and materials through the Appalachian Highlands.
