About this map

Gauley Mountain and the high ridges of the Yew Mountains dominate this section of the Monongahela National Forest in the 2020s. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of two major drainage systems, where the Elk River begins its course to the east and the various forks of the Gauley River—including the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork—emerge from the steep slopes of Gauley Divide. The small settlement of Slaty Fork sits at the eastern edge, serving as a gateway to the high-country terrain. Researchers can trace numerous forest routes and trails, such as the Tea Creek Trail and Boundary Trail, which navigate the complex topography around landmarks like Sharp Knob and Buck Knob. The convergence of county lines for Webster, Randolph, and Pocahontas occurs amidst these peaks, marking a remote tri-county intersection.
