This used to be part of my sales territory in the early '70s, out in the Maryland panhandle, just south of the Mason-Dixon line.

I'm more familiar with the area in Pennsylvania just north of the line, but a lot of the region in both states has steep roads that can be particularly treacherous during winter weather.
