About this map

The Guyandotte River and the Ohio River converge in this transition landscape where West Virginia's rugged terrain meets organized industry. In the early 1970s, the development of Beech Fork Lake was underway, significantly altering the drainage patterns of Beech Fork and its tributaries like Moxley Br. The map reveals a high density of gas production, with scores of Gas Wells punctuating the ridges and valleys between small communities like Winslow and Sarah. Transportation and infrastructure are anchored by the Chesapeake and Ohio RR and an extensive network of pipelines. Local history is preserved in rural landmarks such as Mays Chapel, Davis Chapel, and the McComas Sch, while recreation is represented by Camp Dekanawida and the local Golf Course.
