About this map

Claytor Lake dominates the southern landscape, its intricate shoreline defined by numerous coves and the mouths of Peak Cr and Goose Cr. The terrain rises sharply to the west toward Draper Mtn and its prominent Peak Knob, while the northern portion of the quadrangle centers on the industrial and educational hub of Dublin. This area is home to the New River Community Coll and Burlington Mills, reflecting the region's modern economic character.

Historical settlement patterns remain visible in the rural reaches of Oppossum Hollow and the old village of Newbern. Local genealogy is well-supported by numerous burial sites, including the Southwest Virginia Veterans Cem and Highland Memory Gardens. The transition from old transport routes to modern infrastructure is marked by the presence of Wilderness Rd alongside the path of I-81, and several family-named ferry roads like Lowmans Ferry Rd and Linkous Ferry Rd that lead toward the lake.
