Forested Land in Shenandoah County, VA

Shenandoah County's mountain ridges on both sides of the North Fork valley hold significant hardwood forest, with George Washington National Forest and the mountain communities around Basye and Bryce Resort providing a wooded backdrop. The valley floor is open farmland, but the ridges climb into dense stands of oak, hickory, and mountain laurel.
