1981 Map of Elkins
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Elkins serves as the focal point for this survey of the high mountain reaches where the Tygart Valley River and the Shavers Fork carve through the Allegheny Front. The landscape is defined by the heavy rail infrastructure of the Western Maryland RR and the Baltimore and Ohio RR, which supported the timber and coal industries of the era. To the west, extensive Strip Mines are visible near Coalton and Mabie, contrasting with the preserved lands of the Monongahela National Forest.
