1969 Map of Gauley Bridge

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The confluence of the New River and Gauley River defines this river-and-rail landscape, where the waters merge to form the Kanawha River at the town of Gauley Bridge. This topographical study reveals a mid-century West Virginia industrial corridor, heavily influenced by the presence of the Chesapeake and Ohio and Conrail railroads. The topography is dotted with extraction-era markers including several strip mines and industrial landmarks like the Powerplant and Filtration Plant near Glen Ferris.
