The Trough cuts a dramatic passage for the South Branch Potomac River between Mill Creek Mtn and Sawmill Ridge, anchoring the western edge of this West Virginia landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of parallel ridges including South Branch Mtn and Piney Mtn, which funnel numerous seasonal waterways like Devil Hole Run and Pot Lick Run toward the lowlands. The human footprint is concentrated along narrow valley roads, where small communities like Sector and Wickham are situated.
