The New River carves a deep path through this section of the Blue Ridge, anchoring a landscape defined by isolated summits and small mountain communities. Settlements like Fallville, Spring Valley, and Carsonville are connected by a network of winding mountain roads such as Carsonville Rd and Jerusalem Rd, which follow the natural contours of the high ground between Knob Fork and Elk Creek. The presence of several family-centric burial grounds, including Jerusalem Cem and Warrick Cem, indicates deep-rooted mountain genealogies.
