USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The Little Kanawha River winds through the heart of Wirt County, anchoring the town of Elizabeth and the nearby village of Palestine. This mid-century survey documents a landscape defined by its river-and-ridge geography, where narrow valleys like Two Ripple Run and Tucker Creek host small communities and rural schools. Of particular interest are the Lock & Dam 4 (Ruins), indicating the older navigational history of the river, and the Palestine State Fish Hatchery located just south of the main bend.
