Tug Fork carves the jagged border between Mingo County, West Virginia, and Pike County, Kentucky, anchoring a landscape defined by its coal-rich ridges and narrow hollows. In the early 1990s, the industrial legacy of the region is evident in the dense network of mines, a strip mine near McVeigh, and a prominent conveyor system at Ransom. Major settlements such as Matewan and Blackberry City sit tight against the riverbanks, linked by the Norfolk and Western railroad which follows the water's curves.
