The extractive industries of Webster County dominate this mid-century landscape, where the Baltimore and Ohio and Western Maryland rail lines snake through deep river valleys to serve numerous resource sites. Small settlements like Bergoo, Parcoal, and Jerryville are centers of activity, with a notable tipple and substation marking the industrial infrastructure. The map reveals an intensive pattern of both subsurface mines and extensive strip mines that scar the high ridges of the Gauley Mountains and Gauley Divide.
