1999 Map of Reddish Knob

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Reddish Knob stands as the prominent height in this mountain landscape, marking the high boundary between Augusta and Rockingham counties along the West Virginia and Virginia state line. This portion of the George Washington National Forest is defined by a dense network of high ridges, including Narrow Back Mountain, California Ridge, and Sugar Grove Mountain. The topography indicates a landscape managed for both water resources and recreation during the late twentieth century, evidenced by several water control structures such as Hone Quarry Dam, Briery Branch Dam, and Hearthstone Lake. Local industry and land use are further marked by the presence of Mines near the Little River and a system of fire and access routes like the Briery Branch Path. Surveyed overlooks such as Heiliger Kanzel Overlook and Stony Run Overlook highlight the area's established character as a vantage point for the surrounding Allegheny mountains.
