The Catawba River winds through the northern reaches of this landscape, marking a transition from the river valley to a dense concentration of ridges and knobs. Early 21st-century residential developments and rural settlements like Lackey Town and Moffitt Hill are situated among the intricate drainage networks of Little Crooked Cr and Jordan Br. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly steep, defined by prominent peaks such as Major Mountain and Wolf Pen Mountain. This area is characterized by numerous gaps and ridges, including Sank Gap and Dutchman Ridge, which have historically dictated the placement of roads like Bartlett Hollow Rd and Cherry Springs Rd. The map also captures several distinct hollows and coves, notably Padgett Cove and Allison Cove, which serve as focal points for local habitation near Davistown. Camp Elliott stands as a notable landmark in the southern interior, situated near the headwaters of Cedar Cr.
