1998 Map of Newport

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Jefferson National Forest dominates this section of the Appalachian highlands, where the ridgelines of Sinking Creek Mountain and Brush Mountain run parallel through Montgomery, Giles, and Craig counties. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and the winding course of Sinking Creek, which flows past the settlement of Newport and its historic Covered Bridge. This area serves as a significant corridor for the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, winding through high elevations near Kelly Knob and Wolf Knob.
