About this map

Lost River carves a narrow valley through the high ridges of Hardy County during the early 1920s, anchoring a landscape defined by small mountain gaps and isolated homesteads. The settlement pattern follows the valley floor, connecting Lost City and Mathias via a network of rural schools such as the Bowman School and Shoemaker School. The eastern boundary is marked by the National Forest, while the western edge reveals industrial activity with the Lumber R.R. following the Moorefield River near Elkhorn Mtn.
