About this map

Oakland serves as the focal point of this western Maryland landscape, situated along the Youghiogheny River and Wilson Run. The map illustrates a developed corridor reaching toward Mountain Lake Park, characterized by civic institutions like the Oakland Post Office and Oakland Cemetery. To the west, the settlements of Crellin, Hutton, and Corinth follow the path of Snowy Creek, reflecting the historical rail and resource patterns of the region.

Elevations rise toward the west at Snaggy Mountain, which features the Snaggy Mountain Lookout Tower and Brier Ridge. The northern reaches of the map include the Herrington Manor area and Lake Herrington, managed via the Herrington Creek Dam and McComas Dam. Significant local history is preserved in sites such as the Ashby Cemetery and Tatlor Cemetery, while recreational interests are marked by the Oakland Golf Course and Alpine Lake Resort Golf Course.
