1968 Map of Flat Top
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Shady Spring Mountain dominates the western landscape of this 1968 survey, where the West Virginia Turnpike cuts a modern path through the high ridges of Raleigh and Mercer Counties. The settlement of Flat Top sits at a critical junction near Huff Knob, serving as a high-elevation anchor for a region defined by steep drainage basins and scattered mountain communities. To the east, the terrain drops toward the Bluestone River and Bluestone Lake, where the newly established Pipestem State Park began to transform the local economy from traditional mountain farming toward recreation.
