With the North Fork of the Shenandoah River on the western
flank, and the South Fork on the eastern flank this "U"
shaped mountainous area encircles Fort Valley an area selected
by General George Washington as a location for a Continental
Army "last stand" in the event of a unfortunate turn
of events during the American Revolutionary War. This edition
of Map G features the newly completed Massanutten Trail a loop
trail about 72 miles in length. Because old, existing trails
and newly built sections merged into this single loop trail,
many primary trails and side trails now have new names and new
blaze colors. The map continues to highlight Sections 8,
9, 10, and 11 (41.4 miles total) of the 252-mile Tuscarora Trail.
Printed on water-resistant, tear-resistance synthetic stock in
6 colors. Scale 1:62,400. Contour interval 100 feet.
It provides enlargements of the Elizabeth Furnace campground
and picnic area, the Camp Roosevelt Recreation Area, Woodstock
Tower area and Lions Tale Trail. Come explore the wilderness!
These trails are lightly traveled; making them ideal candidates
for those interested in losing the crowds.
