The Pigeon River flows through the heart of this Haywood County landscape, shaping the industrial and residential development of Canton and its satellite communities. The influence of the local timber and paper industry is evident in the layout of Fibreville, a company-built neighborhood designed to house workers near the mill. Surrounding the urban center, the terrain is defined by a series of coves and gaps, including Buck Cove Mountain and Wolf Pit Gap, which have historically dictated the placement of roads and small homesteads.
