About this map

The Bullpasture River and its numerous tributaries carve through the parallel ridges of the Allegheny Mountains in this high-altitude section of the Virginia and West Virginia border. The settlement of Doe Hill serves as a central point for the surrounding rural community, where family lineage is preserved at sites like the Armstrong/Hiner Family Cem and the Doe Hill Cem. Further south, Sirons Mill sits along Mill Run, reflecting the early importance of water power in these narrow valleys.

Religious life is anchored by the McKendree Methodist Church Cem and the Seven Day Adventist Church Cem, both located near the road network that follows the natural contours of Botkin Hollow and Jack Mtn. A significant portion of the eastern landscape is protected within the George Washington National Forest, where the terrain rises sharply toward Shaws Ridge and the headwaters of the Cowpasture River.
