The ancient geological drainage of the Teays Valley dominates this 1950s landscape, providing a wide, relatively flat corridor for transportation and settlement through the dissected hills of Putnam and Kanawha counties. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad and the Midland Trail both utilize this natural pathway, connecting the community of Teays with the depot at Scott Depot. Outside of this central valley, the terrain is marked by steep ridges like Hickory Knob and Big Scary, where smaller settlements and schools such as Black Lick Sch and Rider Creek Sch serve the more remote hollows.
