Yellow Sulphur Springs and Montgomery White Sulphur Sprs. define the resort character of this region during the late 19th century, drawing visitors to the mountains of Montgomery and Roanoke counties. The landscape is a series of massive parallel ridges including Johns Creek Mountain and Sinking Creek Mountain, which directed early transit through gaps like McAfee Gap and Beckner Gap. Industrial and agricultural life centered on the Norfolk and Western RR, which connects the county seat at Christiansburg to the growing rail hub of Salem.
