About this map

Bentonville and the winding South Fork Shenandoah River dominate this landscape, illustrating the tight relationship between the river valley and the rail transport of the Norfolk Southern. The map details a corridor where small settlements like Limeton and Overall are positioned along the tracks, while the rugged interior of Brush Mountain remains largely defined by hollows and ridges. Land use in this part of Page Valley is reflected in named agriculture and industry sites, such as Flint Run Farms and the Skyline Evergreen Farm.

The terrain rises sharply toward the Blue Ridge, with high points like Hogback Mountain and Little Hogback Mountain offering significant elevation changes. Historical crossing points and landmarks, including Burners Ford and the Indian Hollow Bridge, anchor the valley's geography. Researchers can find specific family and property names preserved in labels like Buck Mountain Farm and Silver Spring Farm, while backcountry features such as Veach Gap Little Crease Shelter mark the recreational paths through the gaps and hollows of the mountain ridges.
