About this map

Tinker Mountain and Brushy Mountain dominate the southwestern landscape of this orthophotoquad, where steep, forested ridges give way to the intricate valley settlements of Botetourt County. The imagery reveals the spatial relationship between the Carvin Cove Reservoir and the developing communities of Daleville and Troutville during the late 1970s.

Farther north, the historic proximity of Fincastle to the winding course of Catawba Creek is clearly visible, showing a landscape still defined by agricultural patterns and small clusters such as Amsterdam and Glebe Mills. This photo-based record provides an exact visual account of land use before significant modern suburban expansion, tracing the traditional corridors between Catawba and Mt Union through the narrow gaps and fertile bottoms.
