About this map

The Alleghany Mountains and Blue Ridge Mountains converge here, framing a landscape defined by the drainage of the James River and Maury River. This mid-1980s data illustrates the region's concentration of academic and military institutions, including Washington and Lee University, the Virginia Military Institute, and Sweet Briar College. The industrial and transport corridors are clearly etched along the river valleys, where the Chesapeake & Ohio and Norfolk & Western RR lines follow the water gaps through the ridges.
