USGS Topo · Published 1916About this map
Peters Mountain and East River Mountain dominate this corner of the Virginias, where the border between the two states winds through the high ridges. The New River cuts a deep path across the terrain, navigated at this time by Shanklins Ferry and flanked by industrial developments like the Mauvern Saltworks. To the south, the Norfolk and Western and Virginian railroads run parallel along the East River valley, facilitating movement through the Hales Gap Tunnel.
