The higher elevations of Madison County and Buncombe County define this area of the Blue Ridge, centered on the historic campus of Mars Hill College. The landscape is deeply carved by watercourses like Bull Creek, Ivy Creek, and California Creek, which shaped the early paths for settlements such as Petersburg, Beech Glen, and California. The terrain is characterized by prominent ridges and gaps, including Grapevine Ridge, Bailey Ridge, and Hamp Gap, creating a complex network of hollows and knobs.
