2019 Map of Mozer

About this map

Monongahela National Forest and George Washington National Forest converge in this high-altitude corner of the Potomac Highlands, where the South Fork South Branch Potomac River cuts through the southeastern ridges. Small agricultural settlements like Mozer, Kline, and Brushy Run occupy the narrow valleys between massive topographic features such as Kesner Mountain and South Fork Mtn. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, with numerous "hollows" and "runs" draining the slopes, including Broadmouth Hollow and Wards Run Spring. A network of rural routes, including Greenawalt Gap Rd and Us Rte 220, follows the natural breaks in the mountains, connecting isolated farmsteads and timber lands. The convergence of three counties—Grant, Hardy, and Pendleton—highlights the strategic position of these mountain passes in the Appalachian chain.
