About this map

Terra Alta occupies the high plateau of the Allegheny Mountains in Preston County, where the historic mountain town is centered around the CSX Transportation railroad line. The settlement pattern is defined by the steep ridges of the Briery Mountains and the Brushy Knobs, with local life clustered near water sources like Terra Alta Lake and Gills Spring. To the east, the Hopemont area serves as a significant landmark, while the surrounding landscape is carved by a complex network of runs and creeks, including Saltlick Creek and the South Branch Snowy Creek.
