Lexington and the industrializing river valleys of the Blue Ridge define this late 19th-century survey of central Virginia. The landscape is marked by a transition from the limestone-rich valleys to the high peaks of the George Washington National Forest. Key transportation corridors follow the water, with the Balto. & Ohio R.R. and Chesapeake & Ohio R.R. threading through gaps to connect mountain settlements like Vesuvius and Raphine.
