This massive arch bridge, measuring 924 m (3 030 feet) in length, spans the New River Gorge in West Virginia, and is one of the largest single-span arch bridges in the world (whether it's the only one is debatable). This massive bridge is part of Interstate 59, allowing direct access between Charleston, Morgantown, and Grafton, without having to take detours through winding state routes.[1] Show The New River Gorge Bridge is a location in the Forest region of Appalachia.

BackgroundThe New River Gorge Bridge is a distinct teal-painted steel arch bridge that spans the New River. It serves as the thoroughfare for Interstate 59, connecting the Appalachian cities of Sutton and Charleston. LayoutThe bridge is split into two map locations, including the New River Gorge Bridge East and New River Gorge Bridge West. The bridge and surrounding buildings are inhabited by feral ghouls, bloatflies and bloodbugs. The upper road of the bridge is collapsed down onto the maintenance walkway in several sections along the length of the bridge. There are also stairways at each end of the bridge down to a maintenance room for each side. The door to the eastern maintenance room has a level 2 lock that must be picked. The door to the western maintenance room requires a key which must be acquired from Camden Park.

BackgroundThe Forest region of Appalachia is characterized by forests growing on rugged terrain, winding rivers, and diverse wild and plant life, providing scroungers with food and water.[1] The area is the location of several pre-War settlements including Charleston, Flatwoods and Point Pleasant, as well as landmarks such as Landview Lighthouse. Likewise, the area encompassing the region is mostly that of in and around Kanawha County, named for its river, the Kanawha River.[2] Nuke restricted area This region of Appalachia was less impacted by the Great War than others, but mutated plants and animals are still found in the area.[2][3] Vault 76 is located near the northern climbs of this undulating forest valley, which encompasses some rich farm and logging land.[4] The area following the Ohio River, the western boundary of Appalachia (and the State of West Virginia), is mainly comprised of wooded and mountainous terrain. It is more remote and has fewer large settlements, with the exception of Point Pleasant. This is where a cult began its worship of Mothman.[5] In the northern part of this region is the area that borders the Toxic Valley. This northeastern forest features both lower, more peaceful areas and toxic border areas (the boundary of which is Route 92).[6] Part of the region surrounding Vault 76 cannot be nuked. Three sides of the Forest are surrounded by rivers, and the southwestern part features wooded terrain.[7] Following the Christmas Flood of December 25, 2082, Summersville Lake now lies almost completely dry, at its heart is the shanty settlement of "New Gad". After the flood (not including the damage from the bomb), the remains of Charleston went down the Kanawha River. Its remains are a flooded ruin; to the northwest is their Fire Department, and along the lake's southeast shores are opulent mansions.[8] LayoutThe Forest is in the center-west portion of the Appalachia map, to the north of the Ash Heap, south of the Toxic Valley and west of the Savage Divide.

Quotes“Mostly untouched by the ravages of nuclear fallout, the gigantic Appalachian forest area comprises the central, western, and northwestern parts of the map (mainly areas in and around Kanawha County). This area offers exceptional scavenging opportunities, remote places to hide out in or near, numerous strange settlements, and many towns, including Point Pleasant (to the west), Morgantown (northeast), Sutton and Helvetia (toward the center), Summersville (north of the large dry lake), and the capital itself, Charleston, which has almost been razed to the ground. Expect some lengthy explorations across the New Gorge Bridge and through the Kanawha Nuka-Cola Plant, battling Super Mutants at Wade Airport, losing your footing at Horizon’s Rest...and that’s just scratching the surface! Stay here if you want to scavenge more easily, in less inclement weather conditions, with enemies that are still a threat but usually won’t cause you to flee in terror (especially if you have a friend or three along for the romp). Check the various Public Workshops for areas you can claim and mine the resources just a little more easily than elsewhere in Appalachia. And finally...did you see those glowing eyes staring at you from the woods? Beware the Mothman!”— Fallout 76 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide p.284 AppearancesThe Forest appears only in Fallout 76.
