2016 Map of Forest Hill

About this map

The Greenbrier River and New River define the winding, mountainous landscape of the Summers and Monroe County border. This 2016 survey highlights the concentrated rural hamlets and family-named hollows that have endured for generations, including Bertha, Buck, and Forest Hill. The confluence of river and creek life is evident at the Mouth of Indian Creek Rd, while the area's geological character is marked by the Stony Creek Gorge and distinctive landmarks like the Devils Featherbed. Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy sites such as the Huffman Cem and Fairview Baptist Church Cem, or locate historic mineral water sites like Bargers Spring and Red Sulphur Spring. The road network, including the Red Sulphur Springs RD, connects these scattered settlements across high points like Wolf Creek Mtn and Bunker Hill, illustrating the complex topography of the West Virginia highlands.
