1969 Map of Summersville Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Gauley River carves a deep path through the heart of Nicholas and Fayette Counties, where the landscape is defined by its industrial and commemorative history. Carnifex Ferry Battlefield State Park preserves the ground of a significant Civil War engagement, while the nearby Old Carnifex Ferry Site and Carnifex Tunnel mark the older transport infrastructure of the gorge. North of the river, the massive Summersville Dam regulates the waters of Summersville Lake, a modern feature that stands in contrast to the traditional hilltop settlements like Keslers Cross Lanes and Mount Lookout.
