About this map

Pennsboro serves as the focal point of this Ritchie County landscape, situated where Bunnell Run meets the larger drainage network. The town's grid is detailed with streets such as W Myles Ave and E Penn Ave, while the N Bend State Park Rail Trl follows the former railroad grade through the valley. This corridor has historically served as the primary east-west artery, mirrored today by Us-50 and Old US-50 as they pass through Toll Gate and Greenwood.

The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Hughes River, which creates a complex series of hollows and ridges like Haymond Ridge. Small rural communities and family landmarks are scattered throughout these hills, including the Masonic Cem and Broadwater Cem. To the northeast, the Pennsboro Water Supply Lake sits tucked into the hills, while the borders of Tyler Co and Doddridge Co converge at the map's edge, highlighting the area's significance as a tri-county junction.
