About this map

McGaheysville and Island Ford anchor the northwestern portion of this terrain, where the valley floor meets the rising peaks of Shenandoah National Park. The South Fork Shenandoah River winds through the Page Valley, serving as a primary corridor for the small communities of Berrytown and Rocky Bar. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by numerous family and community sites, including Mount Olivet Cem, Sipe Cem, and the New Hope Baptist Church Cem.

The southeastern expanse is dominated by the ridges of the Blue Ridge, where the Appalachian National Scenic Trail traverses high points like Rocky Mtn and Pinefield Gap. Steep drainages such as Big Run, Twomile Run, and Onemile Run carve through the wilderness, illustrating the transition from the agricultural lowlands near Spotswood Trl to the high-elevation hollows like Eppert Hollow and Dundo Hollow.
