1967 Map of Reddish Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Shenandoah Mountain defines this high-elevation terrain along the border of Virginia and West Virginia, where the peaks of Reddish Knob and Pond Knob overlook the vast George Washington National Forest. This 1967 survey, with revisions from the 1980s, documents a landscape managed for both utility and recreation. The hydrology is marked by the presence of Briery Branch Dam and Hone Quarry Dam, alongside natural features like Hearthstone Lake. The map reveals evidence of resource extraction with Mines located along the ridges of Hone Quarry Ridge. Local travelers and tourists during this era utilized the Briery Branch Overlook and Stony Run Overlook to survey the complex system of ridges, including California Ridge and Timber Ridge. A network of rugged paths like the Hone Quarry Jeep Trail and Slate Springs Trail provided access to the high backcountry during the mid-to-late 20th century.
