1967 Map of Rawley Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Rawley Springs serves as the focal point for this mountain landscape in the late 1960s, situated at the confluence of several highland drainages within the George Washington National Forest. The hydrological network is the dominant feature of the terrain, with Dry River and its various tributaries like Skidmore Fork and Gum Run carving deep valleys between ridges. Human activity is centered around the recreation and water management infrastructure, notably the Harrisonburg Reservoir and the Riven Rock Picnic Area. Genealogists and local historians may find interest in the peripheral markers of settlement, such as the Oak Grove Cem and the naming of remote points like Clines Hacking. The map illustrates a period of established forest management and watershed protection, characterized by a complex system of fire trails and ridge-top paths including the Dull Hunt Trail and Sand Spring Trail that navigate the slopes of Bald Knob and Second Mountain.
