About this map

Seip Mound Hopewell Culture National Historical Park anchors the northern reaches of this landscape along Paint Creek, preserving significant earthworks in the Paint Valley. The terrain to the south is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Copperas Mountain and Greenbrier Ridge, which are carved by tributaries like the Right Fork Morgan Fork. Small communities and family-named landmarks are scattered throughout these hills, connected by local routes such as Copperas Mountain Rd and Harris Station Rd.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites across the township lines of Ross and Pike counties, ranging from the Potts Hill Cem near the western border to Roberts Cem and Barnett Cem in the east. The presence of Pike Lake and the Buckeye Trail indicates the area's transition into a space for conservation and recreation, while names like Tobacco Barn Hollow and Sulphur Lick reflect the earlier agricultural and natural history of the region.
