2022 Map of Tazewell South

About this map

Tazewell County Courthouse serves as the focal point for this Southwest Virginia map, anchoring the town of Tazewell in a region defined by its prominent ridgelines and narrow limestone valleys. The landscape follows a striking parallel structure, with Witten Valley and Thompson Valley separated by high peaks like Knob Mtn and Rich Mtn. The historic Wittens Fort and the settlement of Pisgah lie along the northern transport corridor near the Clinch River, while the southern reaches transition into the protected wilderness of the Jefferson National Forest. Notable landmarks such as Chimney Rock and Battle Knob overlook the varied terrain of Clinch Mountain, which dominates the lower half of the quadrangle. This 2022 survey details the enduring agricultural and residential patterns of these mountain valleys, from the community of Frog Level to the quiet hollows of Asberrys and Possum Hollow.
