About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep valley between Belmont County, Ohio, and Marshall County, West Virginia, anchoring an industrial and rural landscape during the mid-1970s. Industrial infrastructure follows the river's edge, notably at Dilles Bottom and the riverside settlements of Moundsville and Glendale. This era is defined by the coexistence of traditional coal operations, including several strip mines and a vent shaft near Vallonia, alongside newer developments like the Moundsville Golf Course and a riverside drive-in theater.
