South Mountain and the Blue Ridge dominate the landscape of Rockbridge County in this late 1960s survey, where the South River carves a path through the George Washington National Forest. The settlement of Cornwall sits at the confluence of Irish Creek and the river, serving as a focal point for a region defined by scattered mountain communities like Blacksburg and Donaldsburg. The infrastructure of the era is clearly marked, from the industrial presence of the Norfolk and Western Railway to the winding scenic route of the Blue Ridge Parkway along the eastern heights.
