About this map

Lost City and Mathias serve as the primary hubs in this corner of Hardy County, where the settlement pattern follows the narrow valley of the Lost River. Surveyed in 1921, the landscape is densely populated with community landmarks, including a remarkable concentration of local education and religious sites like Shoemaker School, Straderman School, and Holly Hill Church. The terrain is defined by the massive ridges of Lost River Mountain and Shenandoah Mountain, which create natural barriers along the West Virginia and Virginia border.
