About this map

Slate Creek meanders through the heart of this landscape, its tight bends defining the valley floor as it passes Howards Mill and the community of Preston. The terrain is characterized by the prominent Harpers Ridge and numerous small hollows like Foley Hollow, which historically dictated the placement of roads and homesteads. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor cuts across the northern reaches, serving as a vital industrial artery near Stepstone.
