1967 Map of Blackbird Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Dolly Sods defines this high plateau landscape, where the dramatic ridge of the Allegheny Front drops away toward the Jordan Run valley. This 1967 field survey captures the wilderness character of the Monongahela National Forest straddling the Tucker and Grant County line. The terrain is marked by distinctive rock formations like Bear Rocks and Stack Rock, while the hydrologic pattern is dominated by the headwaters of Red Creek and its numerous tributaries such as Alder Run and Red Run. Evidence of human activity is sparse but specific, including a Quarry in the southeast and the Red Creek Campground. Notable landmarks like Blackbird Knob and Cabin Mountain provide clear reference points for those tracing the historic boundaries and primitive trail networks of this upland region.
