About this map

Bluefield and Princeton anchor this rugged Appalachian survey, where the West Virginia - Virginia State Line cuts through a dense landscape of ridges and river valleys. The region's industrial and coal heritage is visible in the network of the Norfolk and Western Railway and the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway connecting towns like Welch, Coalwood, and Richlands. A unique geological feature, the high mountain valley of Burkes Garden, is enclosed by Garden Mountain, contrasting with the linear stretches of East River Mountain and Stony Ridge.
