1960 Map of Lake Lynn

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Chestnut Ridge dominates the eastern horizon of this quadrangle, while the Cheat River carves through the landscape to form the expansive Lake Lynn and Cheat Lake. The terrain is marked by industrial and recreational evolution, featuring numerous strip mines alongside the conservation lands of Coopers Rock State Forest and Mont Chateau State Park. Traces of early regional industry remain at Clay Furnace, while modern infrastructure is represented by the Ices Ferry Bridge and the Power Station near the Pennsylvania border. Small settlements and rural institutions like Cheat Neck, Fletcher Chapel, and the Sugar Grove Sch provide a detailed view of the community layout during the mid-twentieth century. The map also captures the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor as it follows the river's bend near Gans and Crystal.
