USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Jackson River carves a winding path through the heart of the Rich Patch Mountains and Warm Springs Mountain, anchoring a landscape defined by heavy industry and natural landmarks. In the southern portion of the map, the industrial hubs of Covington and Clifton Forge are connected by the busy lines of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. This rail network supported local extraction efforts, most notably at the Rich Patch Mines near Glen Wilton.
