1942 Map of Big Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

Chickamauga Lake dominates this Tennessee landscape, marking a period of significant hydraulic transformation as the Tennessee River and Hiwassee River converged into a vast reservoir system. The 1942 field examination captures the transition from riverine commerce to hydroelectric and recreational use, yet many older landmarks of the Tennessee Valley remain. Cotton Port Ferry still provides a crossing point near the Malaria Control Base, a reminder of the public health challenges during the reservoir's creation.
