About this map

Camp Forrest Military Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this 1941 survey, showing a significant military presence in Franklin County just as the United States entered World War II. The terrain, characterized by the wooded uplands of The Barrens, is bisected by the winding Elk River, which serves as a central artery for the region's infrastructure. Notable landmarks include the Estill Springs Power Plant and a Camp Forrest Pumping Station, reflecting the industrial and logistical requirements of the era.
