1957 Map of Blue Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Elk River and Big Sandy River define the industrial and social life of this West Virginia landscape during the mid-1950s. The region is heavily marked by the energy sector, with a dense concentration of oil wells and complex pipeline networks crisscrossing the steep terrain. At the confluence of these waterways and rail lines, the Falling Rock Refinery serves as a major hub near Falling Rock Creek. Small communities like Elkview and Blue Creek follow the river bends, while interior ridges such as Flatwood Ridge host more isolated landmarks like the Pinch Ridge Ch.
