About this map

The Tri-Cities Regional Airport anchors the northeastern plateau of this landscape, where the convergence of the South Fork Holston and Watauga Rivers has created the expansive Boone Lake. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern residential and commercial density of the Gray and Boones Creek areas, situated along the corridor of Interstate 26. The complex topography is defined by prominent river features such as Spurgeon Island and the dramatic McAfee Bluff, alongside numerous named hollows like Sprolls Hollow and Jackson Hollow.

A notable engineering feature, the Free Hill Tunnel, is situated near the namesake Free Hill community, while local water infrastructure includes the Sampson Wood Lake and multiple docks like Lakeside Dock. The map details a transition from the agricultural roots of Crouch Crossroad and Oak Grove to modern suburban developments like Royal Pines and Lake Crest, all set against a backdrop of ancient geological formations including Buffalo Ridge and King Ridge.
