About this map

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor anchors this survey of southern Ohio, tracing a path through the steep hollows where the border of Vinton and Jackson counties meets. This rugged pocket of the Harrison Wayne National Forest reveals a landscape defined by natural resources and early preservation, featuring the Leo Petroglyph State Memorial near the settlement of Leo. The map documents a period of active land use, with numerous strip mines dotting Fairview Ridge and Richland Ridge, alongside established timberlands in the Richland Furnace State Forest.
