USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The Potomac River corridor serves as the central artery for this mid-century survey, defining the border between Maryland and Virginia. The landscape is dominated by the parallel transit routes of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, which navigate the narrow passage beneath Catoctin Mountain. The bustling rail town of Brunswick stands in contrast to the agricultural settlements of Jefferson and Petersville to the north.
