2013 Map of Reddish Knob

About this map

Reddish Knob stands as the primary landmark in this high-altitude section of the George Washington National Forest, marking a prominent point on the Virginia and West Virginia border. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage systems, where headwaters like the N Fork Little River and S Fork Little River carve deep valleys between high ridges such as Timber Ridge and Wolf Ridge. Significant water management features, including the Briery Branch Reservoir and Hone Quarry Reservoir, highlight the 20th-century development of the region's water resources. Roadways like Hone Quarry Rd and Tilghman Rd provide access through the dense woodland, connecting various scenic points like the Heiliger Kanzel Overlook and Stony Run Overlook. This survey effectively illustrates the intersection of mid-century infrastructure and the enduring natural geography of the Shenandoah Valley's western flank.
