Pennington Gap serves as the primary hub in this mountain landscape where the N Fork Powell River winds through the valley floor. The settlement pattern follows the narrow creek beds and hollows, with coal-era names like Bonny Blue, Saint Charles, and Turners Siding marking the deep-cut topography of the Little Black Mountain range. These small communities are linked by winding routes such as Baileys Trace and Bonny Blue Rd, reflecting a transportation network dictated by the ridges and gaps.
