The New River defines this landscape as it meanders through the Blue Ridge foothills along the border of North Carolina and Virginia. Near the northern edge of the map, the community of Mouth of Wilson sits at the confluence of Wilson Creek and the river, serving as a historic nexus for travel between Grayson and Alleghany counties. Further south, the river splits into the North Fork New River and South Fork New River, carving through a terrain of prominent peaks like Fox Knob and Grassy Knob.
