Folded Rocks of Sideling Hill Road Cut, Hancock MD

The Sideling Hill is a long, steep, narrow mountain ridge that runs north to south across western Maryland in Washington County, in the United States. For many centuries, this mountain had blocked the path of many travellers who wished to go from Maryland to northeast West Virginia and vice versa. Travellers had to decide whether they wanted to go around it or over it, but both routes being treacherous, resulted in many mishaps.
