About this map

The Broad River and its numerous tributaries, including Hickory Creek and Reedypatch Creek, carve a complex network of valleys through the Blue Ridge mountains. This 1946 Tennessee Valley Authority survey, photorevised in 1969, reveals a landscape of high summits and scattered mountain communities. At Hickorynut Gap, the terrain transitions between Buncombe and Henderson counties, where settlements like Gerton and Bat Cave are situated along winding mountain roads.
