The Lost River meanders through this Appalachian corridor, anchoring the small valley settlements of Lost City and Mathias in Hardy County. This 2016 survey illustrates a landscape of narrow hollows and high ridges, including Shoemaker Hollow and Whetzel Hollow, where small family cemeteries like Cedar Hill Cem and Greenwood Cem mark the heritage of the upland valleys. The terrain is dominated by the massive presence of the George Washington National Forest, covering the eastern highlands of Great North Mountain and Falls Ridge.
