About this map

George Washington National Forest blankets the high ridges along the West Virginia and Virginia border, where the crest of Great North Mountain separates Hardy County from Shenandoah County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic topography, including landmarks like Big Schloss and the Wolf Gap pass. In the lowlands, the settlement at Perry sits within the Trout Run Valley, while Columbia Furnace marks the southeastern edge of the quadrangle.

Water resources are central to the area's geography, ranging from the natural Joseph Sager Spring and Trout Pond to the man-made Woodstock Reservoir and Rockcliff Lake. Transportation follows the contours of the land, with Settler Valley Way and Wolf Gap Road providing access through the mountain passes. Aviation history is noted by the presence of Ayers Airport near High Head, while small rural routes like Bethany Church Lane and Hottletown Road serve local residences.
