Steep mountains and narrow valleys define this coal-producing county, with the Guyandotte River creating the primary valley system. Mining activities have significantly altered the landscape alongside natural mountain terrain.

Agricultural activities are limited to small valleys and reclaimed mining sites, with small cattle operations and hay production. Efforts to establish agriculture on former mining lands show promise for expanding farming opportunities.
