The ridge is located approximately north-northeast of Monterey, Virginia near the village of Blue Grass.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://viewer.nationalmap.gov/viewer/?p=default&b=base1&x=-8856222.964473663&y=4644971.749898378&l=12&v= )〕
Along the crest of the ridge line is a near vertical outcrop of Tuscarora Sandstone approximately thick. This formation gives the ridge its name of Devils Backbone, as the outcrop has been described "like the vertebrae of some monstrous prehistoric animal". The formation has also been described as resembling that of "the comb on the head of a domestic fowl".〔
