USGS Topo · Published 1990About this map
Burnsville serves as the central hub for this corner of the Blue Ridge, where the Cane River cuts a path through the surrounding highlands of the Pisgah National Forest. The 1939 data reveals a landscape defined by small-scale mountain farming and social centers, featuring landmarks like the State Prison Camp and the Mt Mitchell Boys Camp. The map preserves the names of numerous community-centric features such as the Day Book (P.O.) post office, Clearmont Sch, and Jacks Creek Ch.
