Monterey serves as the central hub for this late 19th-century survey of the Potomac headwaters and the upper reaches of the James River basin. The landscape is defined by the sharp, parallel ridges of the Allegheny Mountains, including the Back Allegheny Mountain and the high Top of Allegheny along the West Virginia and Virginia boundary. Settlers in this era congregated in the narrow valleys between the steep slopes of Jack Mountain and Monterey Mountain, establishing communities such as Crabbottom and New Hampden in the north, and Williamsville to the south.
