2016 Map of Burnsville

About this map

The Little Kanawha River winds through this Central West Virginia landscape, anchoring the town of Burnsville where the Little Kanawha River Bridge spans the water near Walbash Ave. This mid-2010s survey details the complex system of hollows and runs that define the region, including Shock Hollow, Carter Hollow, and Baker Hollow. Settlement patterns follow the narrow valleys and ridges, with communities like Hyers, Gem, and Heaters established along the primary corridors. For those tracing local history, the map identifies several significant burial grounds, such as the K of P Cem near the river and the Little Kanawha Memorial Gardens further south near Rollyson. High points like Gabel Knob and Buck Ridge overlook a dense network of secondary roads, such as Oil Creek Rd and Copen Rd, which connect the small villages and rural family landmarks.
