USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The Kanawha River corridor serves as the industrial and transportation spine of this region during the mid-1960s, with settlements like Marmet, Belle, and Chesapeake concentrated along the water and the West Virginia Turnpike. This landscape is defined by the extraction economy of the Appalachian coalfields, where numerous mines, strip mines, and tipples are tucked into the hollows of the Loudon and Cabin Creek districts.
