About this map

Blackgum and the surrounding Cookson Hills region of Sequoyah County are defined by a landscape of prominent peaks and winding creek valleys. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Chuculate Mountain and Anderson Mountain, which overlook the complex drainage of Vian Creek and Red Bird Smith Creek. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Vian is situated near Vian Lake, where a Gaging Station and Picnic Area indicate a focus on local water management and recreation.
