The New River Gorge National River and its dramatic landscape dominate the eastern portion of this 1980s-era topographic survey. This was a pivotal time for the region as industrial coal mining footprints intersected with emerging conservation and recreation land at Grandview State Park and Little Beaver State Park. The map documents the extensive transportation infrastructure required to move resources through the Appalachians, including the winding tracks of the Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and Western railroads.
