About this map

Kumbrabow State Forest and the Monongahela National Forest dominate the high, timbered ridges of Randolph County in this mid-1970s record. The landscape is defined by the steep divide of Rich Mountain, separating the Middle Fk River drainage from the Tygart Valley River corridor. Along these valley floors, small settlements like Adolph and Elkwater maintain a quiet presence, anchored by local landmarks such as Pleasant Chapel and Elkwater Ch. Evidence of the region’s shifting industrial history is visible in the Old RR Grade and several Strip Mine sites scattered across the northern slopes. Notable for local history is the site of Old Fort and the extensive Huttonsville State Farm, reflecting the intersection of state land management and historic settlement patterns in the Appalachian interior.
