1956 Map of Charlottesville

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Appalachian Mountains dominate this mid-century landscape, framing the expansive Shenandoah Valley and the prominent ridges of Massanutten Mountain. The region is defined by its major river systems, with the South Fork Shenandoah River and North Fork Shenandoah River snaking through the lowlands while the James River and Rappahannock River drain the eastern slopes. Large tracts of protected land, including Shenandoah National Park and the George Washington National Forest, anchor the terrain.
