The Potomac River winds through a landscape defined by historic water crossings and established agrarian settlements in this 2023 survey of the West Virginia-Maryland border. The town of Shepherdstown serves as a central hub, preserving several legacy burial grounds such as Shepherds Graveyard and Reformed Graveyard. Along the riverbanks, the engineering of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal remains a prominent feature, following the bends near Horseshoe Bend and Terrapin Neck, where the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trl now traces the old towpath.
