Pickens serves as a central hub in this 1913 survey of the West Virginia highlands, where the B And O R R terminates near the headwaters of the Buckhannon River. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of the timber industry, most notably the Timber Railroad winding through the eastern forests toward Adolph P.O. and Lee Bell. This era shows a distributed network of upland communities and family-named landmarks, such as Helvetia, Silica, and Czar.
