Oceana anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, where the confluence of Clear Fork and Dingess Fork defines the local topography. This 2014 survey captures the intricate drainage system of Wyoming and Logan Counties, marked by dozens of named hollows and branches that feed into the larger creek systems. Steep ridges like Huff Mtn and Blue Ridge separate scattered communities such as Cyclone, Lynco, and Coal Mountain. The presence of the Burning Rock Lookout Tower atop Burning Rock highlights a high-elevation vantage point overlooking the winding creek valleys. Genealogists and local historians will find value in family-associated landmarks like the Milty T Morgan Cem and the Upper Sturgeon Br church. The map also illustrates the transition of land use from the traditional Appalachian hollows to modern recreation at the Clear Fork Valley Golf Course and industrial features like Lynco Number Two Lake.
