About this map

The Monongahela National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, which is split by the Pocahontas Co and Greenbrier Co boundary line. In the southern reach of the survey, the namesake Lake Sherwood and the small settlement of Columbia Sulphur Springs sit near the foot of Meadow Creek Mtn. The topography is defined by high ridges and deep drainages, including the Allegheny Mountains and the steep terrain of Devils Garden and White Rocks.

Tracing the path of WV 92, the map records the locations of isolated communities like Trainer and Burr. These settlements are connected by a web of narrow mountain runs and creeks, such as N Fork Anthony Cr and Middle Fork Anthonys Cr. The intricate contour data provides clear insight into the timber-rich valleys of Burr Valley and May Hollow, illustrating the rural character of this Appalachian high country.
