About this map

Apple Pie Ridge and Little North Mountain define the topography of this Frederick County borderland, where the boundary between West Virginia and Virginia follows the crest of N Mtn. The landscape is characterized by a series of north-south running ridges and narrow hollows, including Warm Springs Hollow and Frog Hollow, which have historically dictated the placement of settlements and transport routes. Clusters of residential development and agricultural land are concentrated around historic points like White Hall, Cedar Grove, and Welltown.

Genealogical interest is found at sites like the Old Stone Church Cem in Green Spring and Mount Pleasant Cem near Dutton Gap. Several small impoundments, such as Lake Saint Clair, Silver Lake, and Lake Serene, provide modern landmarks within a landscape still defined by its traditional drainage patterns of Back Creek and Hogue Creek. This modern survey documents the persistent rural character and complex road network that connects these long-standing communities.
