Rocky Gap State Park

Flintstone, MD

A glacially-carved lake set inside a narrow mountain gap in the Allegheny ridges of western Maryland - the improbably blue water of Lake Habeeb surrounded by forested peaks creates a scene more reminiscent of the Adirondacks than suburban Maryland.

Practical Tips
The narrows between the two sections of Lake Habeeb offer the best compositional framing. Morning reflections before wind picks up are excellent. The gorge cliffs are dramatic in any season.
