1945 Map of Clifton Forge
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor anchors the industrial and transport geography of this section of the Alleghenies, connecting the primary population centers of Clifton Forge and Covington. This mid-century landscape is defined by a dense network of mountain ridges, including Warm Springs Mountain and Rich Patch Mountain, which channel the Jackson River through dramatic gaps like The Gorge. The interaction between extractive industry and leisure is evident, as the map records the Rich Patch Mines alongside established resorts and recreation hubs such as Hot Springs and the Cascades Golf Club.
