The Kanawha River serves as the central artery for a dense network of industrial and residential settlements along the Kanawha and Fayette County line. This modern topographic study reveals the tight geographical constraints of the region, where communities like Montgomery, Smithers, and London are clustered along the riverbanks and narrow valley floors. Steep ridges and named hollows, such as Graveyard Hollow and Dark Hollow, rise sharply from the water's edge, illustrating the topographic isolation of historical coal and transport hubs.
