2013 Map of Carter

About this map

Buladeen and Housley anchor this rugged stretch of eastern Tennessee, where the landscape is defined by the steep elevation of Holston Mountain. This 2013 survey illustrates a classic Appalachian settlement pattern, with residences and small communities like Sadie and Carter tucked into the narrow valleys and hollows between prominent landforms such as Taylor Ridge and Grindstaff Ridge. The northern edge of the map is dominated by the finger-like inlets of South Holston Lake, where the rising water reaches into Big Cr and Josiah Cr.
