2019 Map of Snyder Knob

About this map

Monongahela National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape, where the headwaters of several drainages carve deep hollows into the terrain. The central spine of Cheat Mtn and the prominent Snyder Knob define the rugged topography, while Shavers Fork winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. In the northeast corner, Fort Milroy Cem serves as a small but significant indicator of the area's pioneer and military history, situated near White Top. The map records a wilderness of ridges and runs, including Swecker Ridge and Ware Ridge, alongside named drainages like Peters Run and Lambert Run. The boundary between Randolph and Pocahontas counties cuts diagonally across the southern reaches of this forest-dominated study, illustrating the jurisdictional lines drawn through the remote high country of the Allegheny Mountains.
