1960 Map of Big Run

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Fishing Creek and its many winding forks carve through the landscape of Wetzel County, defining a region where small rural settlements are linked by narrow valley roads. The topography is dominated by prominent high ground such as Creswell Ridge and Lowman Ridge, which separate the various drainage basins. This mid-century survey reveals an economy deeply tied to natural resources, evidenced by the dense concentration of gas wells peppered across the hillsides near Kodol and Burchfield.
