1966 Map of Alleghany

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Peters Mountain and Snake Run Ridge define the steep topography of this borderland where Virginia and West Virginia meet. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor is a focal point of engineering, featuring the Lewis Tunnel and its associated Lewis Tunnel Cem. Small mountain settlements like Alleghany and Hematite dot the narrow valleys of Tygers Creek and Dunlap Creek, while the southern reaches center on the historic resort atmosphere of Sweet Springs and Sweet Chalybeate.

Remote mountain life is evidenced by numerous small houses of worship, including Palestine Ch and Forrest Memorial Ch. The landscape shows a clear division between public and private lands, with significant portions managed as the George Washington National Forest and Jefferson National Forest. Unusual features such as Jingling Rocks and Beaverdam Falls offer specific landmarks for those tracing the historical geography of these Appalachian ridges.
