Zekiah Swamp and the dense network of tributaries feeding the Wicomico River define the terrain of southern Charles County. This landscape is a complex of wetlands and tidal guts, including Fresh Marsh, Tears Gut, and Steinhauser Gut. The settlement pattern follows the higher ground and major road corridors like US Highway 301, connecting rural crossroads such as Bel Alton, Faulkner, and Allens Fresh.
