Monterey serves as the focal point for this Highland County landscape, where the settlement pattern follows the narrow valleys carved between prominent ridges. The geography is defined by the steep parallel rises of Lantz Mountain, Monterey Mountain, and Jack Mountain, which channel the Potomac River and its numerous tributaries like Strait Creek and Crab Run. Smaller communities and landmarks are scattered throughout these corridors, including New Hampden and Possum Trot, reflecting a rural Highlands economy based on small-scale agriculture and timber, further evidenced by a Quarry and the George Washington National Forest boundary.
