About this map

The James River carves a deep path through the Blue Ridge Mountains on this 1940 survey, marking the convergence of the George Washington National Forest and the Jefferson National Forest. This river corridor serves as a critical industrial and transport artery, hosting both the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway and the Norfolk and Western Railway. Near the gap at Balcony Falls, the river meets the North Fork, which flows past the industrial site at Buffalo Forge.
