1945 Map of Clifton Forge

About this map

Clifton Forge sits as a vital rail and industrial hub at the convergence of the Jackson River and the Chesapeake and Ohio RR, dominating the valley landscape between Warm Springs Mountain and Rich Patch Mountain. The map reveals a mid-century infrastructure supporting both industry and recreation, from the Rich Patch Mines in the south to the developed leisure spaces of Douthat State Park and the Cascades Golf Club. The transportation network is defined by the steep river gaps, particularly where the railroad and river navigate The Gorge.
