1939 Map of Bald Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Cane River winds through the high-elevation valleys of Yancey and Madison counties in this late-1930s topographic study. The landscape is defined by the intersections of the Bald Mountains, Walnut Mountains, and Sampson Mountain, with the Appalachian Trail following the ridge lines along the Tennessee state border. Small, isolated mountain communities such as Lewisburg, Bee Log, and Higgins are concentrated in the narrow river bottoms and along tributaries like Bald Mountain Creek.
