Cacapon River and North River define the topography of this corner of the Allegheny Mountains, where traditional mountain gaps and hollows dictate the layout of small West Virginia settlements. Small communities like Yellow Spring, Intermont, and Delray are positioned near river crossings and gaps such as Yellow Spring Gap, while the higher elevations are dominated by North River Mtn and Dillons Mtn. The landscape is characterized by its numerous water sources, including Paul Keister Spring and Capon Lake Spring, which have long anchored local land use.
