1967 Map of Gary

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Gary and its surrounding coal-producing settlements define the landscape of McDowell County in this detailed study. The geography is dominated by the winding path of the Norfolk and Western railroad, which threads through the valleys of the Tug Fork and its numerous tributaries to serve the intense industrial operations of the era. The map records a complex network of mines, mine dumps, and expansive strip mines that trace the ridges above Elbert and Filbert.
