About this map

The Tygart Valley River flows through the heart of this Appalachian landscape, anchoring the historic communities of Mill Creek and Huttonsville. This area serves as a gateway to the high ridges of the Monongahela National Forest, where the terrain ascends sharply toward the heights of Cheat Mtn and Rich Mtn. The map reveals a land defined by its watercourses, from the larger Shavers Fork and Mill Cr to the numerous smaller runs like Becky Cr and Jones Run that carve through the mountain gaps.

Local history is preserved in landmarks such as the Old Brick Church Cem and the WM Currence Memorial Bridge, which spans the river near the town centers. The road network, including the winding path of Us-250 WV-92, follows the natural contours of the valley, connecting old family homesteads and valley settlements to the broader Allegheny highlands. This survey provides a clear view of the relationship between the valley floor and the surrounding peaks like Hutton Knob and Cromer Top.
