2010 Map of Rustburg

About this map

Rustburg serves as the focal point of this Campbell County landscape, situated near the headwaters of Mollys Creek and surrounded by numerous family cemeteries that testify to the area's deep genealogical roots. The terrain is defined by the prominent ridge of Long Mountain and the steep Wheeler Cliff overlooking the South Fork Falling River. In the early 21st century, the area shows a transition from rural homesteads to newer residential developments like Long Mountain Estates and Thomas Terrace. Water management is a visible priority throughout the quadrangle, with several private and utility dams including the Silver Spring Lake Dam, Lynch Dam, and the Patrick Upper Dam controlling the flow of local branches and creeks. Transportation follows historic corridors like Grist Mill Rd and Poor House Rd, while Breezy Knoll Airport provides a modern aerial connection to the region.
