Potts Creek defines the rugged heart of this Virginia landscape, winding through a valley constrained by the massive slopes of Peters Mountain and Potts Mountain. The 1960s terrain is marked by a deep-rooted religious and industrial history, evidenced by a cluster of rural sanctuaries such as Persinger Memorial Chapel, Lone Star Ch, and Pinnell Chapel. The influence of early transportation and mineral extraction is visible in the presence of an Old Grade RR and several unnamed mines near the settlement of Jordan Mines.
