1940 Map of Bryson

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Bryson City sits at the heart of this 1940 survey, positioned where the Tuckasegee River meets the expanding waters of Fontana Lake. The landscape is a complex meeting of jurisdictions, showing the boundary between the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to the north and the Nantahala National Forest to the south. The Southern Railway follows the river's winding course, connecting settlements like Ela and Governors Island to the regional economy.
