The North Branch Potomac River and its larger sibling, the Potomac River, dominate this landscape at the border of Maryland and West Virginia. This region is defined by the narrow corridors of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and the CSX Transportation railroad, which follow the water gaps through a series of north-south ridges like Warrior Mtn and Stratford Ridge. The settlement of Oldtown serves as a local hub, featuring several legacy sites including the Oldtown Catholic Cem and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Burial Park.
