1913 Map of Pickens
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The mountain settlements of Helvetia and Pickens anchor this 1913 survey, revealing a landscape defined by deep timber extraction and high-altitude farming in the Alleghenies. The Buckhannon River and its numerous forks, such as the Right Fork and Left Fork, carve through the complex terrain of Rich Mountain and Turkeybone Mountain. This era captures the height of the industrial timber boom, evidenced by the extensive network of the Lumber R.R. and the B. And O. R.R. winding through the valleys to reach remote outposts like Hartridge.
