1972 Map of Duo

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Duo sits at the heart of this industrial and mountain landscape, where the heavy extraction of the early 1970s is etched into the terrain of Meadow Bluff Mountain. Extensive strip mines, active mines, and a prominent slag dump surround the settlement, illustrating the intensive coal operations of the era. The land is defined by high peaks and sharp ridges, including Beech Knob and Job Knob, which overlook the complex drainage systems of the Little Clear Creek and the North Fork. Within the Monongahela National Forest, a network of primitive roads and the National Forest Trail connect isolated features like Kuhn Glades and various tipples. This survey documents a specific moment when high-altitude mining intersected with the protected forest lands of Greenbrier County.
