Rocky Gap and South Gap serve as the primary hubs in this mountainous section of southwest Virginia, where the landscape is defined by the tight corridors of Wolf Creek and its many tributaries. The area's settlement pattern follows the drainage of Kimberling Creek, with small communities like Kimberling and Pumpkin Center established along the valley floors. Genealogists will find significant local history markers including the Tuggle Cemetery in the north and the Hoges Chapel Methodist Cemetery to the southeast near the base of the ridges.
