About this map

The Rappahannock River defines the winding boundary between Rappahannock and Fauquier counties in this mid-1990s landscape. This rural Virginia Piedmont terrain is characterized by the convergence of several major watercourses, including the Jordan River and Hittles Mill Stream, which carve through narrow valleys between prominent peaks like Rattlesnake Mountain and Fogg Mtn.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground and valley floor, centered on the historic village of Flint Hill. Local transit and land use are marked by a mix of spiritual and utilitarian sites, from Willis Chapel and Mt Morris Ch to several small quarries and gravel pits. The northwestern corner is anchored by the Appalachian Trail as it passes over Ravensden Rock, while established estates such as Wakefield Manor sit lower in the drainage basins near Huntly and Hitch.
