Powell River meanders through this portion of Claiborne County, creating dramatic topographic shifts at Wilson Bend and Bostic Bend. The landscape is a complex network of ridges and hollows, including Chestnut Grove Ridge and Tony Hollow, where isolated settlements and family burial grounds are common. This map documents a history of resource extraction near the river, evidenced by the Caldwell Mine and the New Prospect Mine, as well as the Stiner Prospects near Leadmine Bend Creek.
