About this map

Tug Fork and Knox Creek define the deep valleys and political boundaries of this coal-country landscape where Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia meet. At the start of the 21st century, the region's industrial character remains prominent through the Norfolk And Western railroad corridor and active extraction sites like Thacker Mines and several Strip Mines. Smaller settlements such as Majestic, Vulcan, and Stopover are connected by winding roads that follow the floor of steep hollows. Local heritage is preserved in landmarks like the Beech Creek Sch and Steele Cem, while the rugged geography is marked by numerous family-named branches and forks, including Meador Fork and Malachi Branch. This survey illustrates the intricate relationship between the region's natural drainage patterns and the infrastructure built to support its mining economy.
