About this map

Brevard and its surrounding mountain communities are captured here in a transition between civic centers and the wild corridors of the Pisgah National Forest. The landscape is anchored by the Transylvania County Courthouse and the campus of Brevard College, where the French Broad River begins its course through the valley. This 2022 survey details the residential growth extending into North Brevard and Ducktown, while maintaining the historical footprint of numerous family burial grounds like King Old Town Cem and Wilson Cem.

The southern reaches of the quadrangle reveal a complex drainage system feeding into the Little River and S Prong Little River. Notable terrain features such as Slick Rock Mtn, Cedar Rock, and Panther Mtn define the high country, where recreation and conservation meet at Sherwood Forest. The placement of Dunns Creek Baptist Church and several community lakes, including Marchmans Lake and Hemlock Lake, illustrates the enduring mountain-valley settlement pattern of Transylvania County.
