The Trap Pond State Park corridor in Sussex County defines this mid-century landscape, centered on the waters of Trap Pond and its surrounding wetlands. The geography is characterized by an intricate network of drainage ditches and branches, including Jabs Ditch, Dukes Ditch, and the Savannah Ditch, illustrating the persistent efforts to manage the low-lying terrain for agricultural use. Small, rural settlements are clustered at nearly every major intersection, from Hardscrabble in the northwest to Lowes Crossroads in the southeast.
