About this map

Charmco and Nallen anchor the corners of this landscape on the boundary of Nicholas and Greenbrier Counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Meadow River, which carves a deep loop through the center of the sheet. Modern adaptive reuse of the region's industrial past is visible in the Meadow River Rail-Trail, including a section Under Construction that follows the river's path south of Burdette.

Smaller mountain communities like Nutterville, Corliss, and Bingham are scattered across the high ridges, connected by a network of rural routes such as Sugar Grove Rd and Co Rte 2. Genealogists will find several family-named burial sites, including Shawver Cem, Rider Cem, and Bethel Cem. High points such as Daubenspeck Knob and Beargarden Knob overlook the diverse drainage systems of Anglins Creek and Laurel Creek, while Sugar Grove United Methodist Church serves as a central landmark for the northern uplands.
