Camden on Gauley and Gauley Mills anchor the northwestern corner of this West Virginia landscape, where the Gauley River carves a deep valley through the high ridges of the Monongahela National Forest. The map documents a rugged timber and mining geography, evidenced by industrial sites like the Strip Mine Tipple near Holcomb and various rail sidings such as Harris Siding. Narrow valleys and creeks, including Strouds Creek and the Cherry River, dictated the placement of small communities and isolated homesteads.
