2013 Map of Mountain Falls

About this map

Mountain Falls and the surrounding highlands of the Virginia-West Virginia border are characterized by a network of runs and hollows feeding into Cedar Cr. This landscape reflects a long history of rural industry and secluded settlements, as seen in the presence of Star Tannery and the clustered springs at Pembroke Springs and Gravel Springs. The geography is defined by prominent ridges such as Short Mountain and Mcllwee Ridge, separated by gaps like Paddy Gap and Dry Gap. Local transportation and recreation are evident through the Mulberry Run Airport and Hawk Campground, while family-named roads such as Orndorff Ln and Mcllwee Ln suggest deep genealogical roots. The area around Winchester Camp and the small community of Zepp illustrates the enduring rural character of this borderland terrain.
