1969 Map of Hopeville

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

South Branch Potomac River and its North Fork dominate this 1960s landscape, where steep ridgelines converge at Hopeville Gap. The area represents a point of transition between the high, windswept plateau of the Dolly Sods Wilderness and the deep river valleys below. Evidence of early industry and community life is scattered throughout the mountains, from a mine near Front Ridge to the North Fork Ch and Pleasant Valley Ch. The map details a complex network of forest trails, including the Stonecoal Trail and Rohrbaugh Trail, winding through the Monongahela National Forest. Notable landmarks such as Smoke Hole Caverns and Chimney Top highlight the distinct geological character of this part of West Virginia, while isolated settlements like Shafter and Ketterman mark the valley floors.
