2011 Map of Fulks Run

About this map

Yankeetown and Genoa anchor this pocket of Rockingham County, where the North Fork Shenandoah River snakes through the valley floor. The landscape is defined by its water systems, from the course of Little Dry River to the Shoemaker River and the structural presence of Claycomb Dam. The terrain rises sharply toward Church Mountain and Buffalo Clover Knob, with much of the higher ground preserved within the Washington National Forest. Local history is rooted in the small settlements and family-named landmarks like Trumbo Cemetery, while the network of mountain roads such as Lairs Run Rd and Turner Run Rd follows the natural drainages of Lairs Run and Turner Run. This 2011 survey captures the area's enduring rural character and the complex hydrology of the Shenandoah watershed.
