Walker Mtn and Brushy Mtn dominate this stretch of Southwest Virginia, carving out the narrow agricultural corridors of Freestone Valley and Rich Valley. The North Fork Holston River snakes through the center of the sheet, connecting small communities like Ellendale, Ridgedale, and Chatham Hill. The landscape is characterized by its numerous small family cemeteries and geographic depressions such as Bently Hole, reflecting a settlement pattern deeply tied to the specific topography of the ridge-and-valley system.
