About this map

Lake Gaston dominates the southern reaches of this 1970s orthophotograph, where the impounded waters of the Roanoke River stretch across the Virginia and North Carolina border. This specific imagery was captured in late 1976, providing a high-contrast visual record of the timbered hills and scattered agricultural clearings that define the Brunswick County landscape. The small settlement of Valentines sits central to a network of rural roads, while Triplet occupies the northeastern corner of the quadrangle. The map also captures a portion of Roanoke Rapids Lake to the southeast. Unlike traditional line-drawn topographic maps, this orthophoto format reveals the exact density of forest cover and the precise boundaries of individual farm fields as they existed during this era of southern borderland development.
