1944 Map of Mc Dowell

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Mc Dowell serves as a central hub in this 1944 topographic survey, situated at the confluence of Bullpasture River and Crab Run. The landscape is dominated by the massive parallel ridges of Bullpasture Mountain and Shenandoah Mountain, creating a terrain of deep hollows and narrow valleys. This settlement pattern reflects the traditional Appalachian reliance on water gaps and river bottoms for agriculture and passage, as seen in the cluster of landmarks like Siron's Mill and McKendree Ch.
