The extractive economy of Webster County's highlands defines this 1966 landscape, where the confluence of the Elk River and Leatherwood Creek at Bergoo serves as a hub for mining and rail activity. Dozens of Strip Mines and deep mines dot the steep ridges of Jonathan Knob, Pompeys Knob, and Cold Knob, linked by a complex network of Jeep Trails and the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Industrial infrastructure is prominent throughout the terrain, including a Substation at Bergoo and a Tipple and Tailings Ponds near Jerryville.
