The Elk River and Gauley River define the topography of this West Virginia landscape, where the town of Webster Springs sits at the confluence of the Back Fork Elk River and the main branch. The town’s historical identity as a resort destination is tied to the Fork Lick Spring, while its modern infrastructure is noted by the Kenney B. Hamrick Sr. Memorial Bridge. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Monongahela National Forest, a terrain of high ridges such as Miller Ridge and Hamrick Ridge and deep hollows like Hickman Hollow. Genealogists will find several burial sites including Adam Miller Cem, Woods Cem, and the Sand Run Baptist Church Cem near Bolair. The map also details small mountain settlements like Excelsior, Parcoal, and Dyer, connected by a network of winding roads like Point Mountain RD and Webster RD.
