2011 Map of Trout

About this map

Trout and the Trout Post Office serve as a focal point for this rural Greenbrier County landscape, where the headwaters of Roaring Creek and Spring Creek carve through the high ridges of the Allegheny Mountains. The 2011 survey highlights a network of mountain roads like Sky Way and Richwood Rd connecting dispersed settlements such as Cordova and Friars Hill. Genealogists may find interest in the Reed Cemetery and landmarks like Luther's Knob, while the inclusion of sites like Glicks and Rock Camp suggests localized industry or traditional encampments. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations, including Cold Knob Mountain and Grassy Knob, where a Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the surrounding forest. This map documents a region where life remains closely tied to the valleys and gaps of the Highland border.
