About this map

Carvins Cove Reservoir dominates the southern landscape, its jagged shoreline reaching into the valley between Tinker Mountain and Brushy Mountain. This 2011 survey captures the established corridor of Botetourt County, where the historic settlement of Fincastle sits at the northern edge, connected to Daleville and Amsterdam by a network of local roads and suburban expansion. The transition from industrial or agricultural roots is evident in the numerous named mills, including Howell Mills and Glebe Mills, which line the waterways that drain toward the reservoir and Catawba Creek.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant data in the distribution of family-named burial grounds across the terrain, from Riley Cemetery near the water's edge to Pleasant Chapel Cemetery in the southeast. Smaller communities like Haymakertown and Mount Union maintain their identity amidst the rising infrastructure of the twenty-first century, while landmarks such as Barrows Airport and the Orchard Lake Dam mark the modern utility of the valley.
