2022 Map of Carter

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Holston Mtn and its prominent Holston High Knob anchor this landscape along the border of Sullivan and Carter Counties. The high ridges of the Cherokee National Forest are traversed by the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, which winds through Turkeypen Gap and over Peters Ridge. Settlement is concentrated in the valley floors along Stony Cr, where the communities of Carter, Winner, and Buladeen are situated. Family history is etched into the terrain through numerous small burial sites such as Grindstaff Cem, Buckles Cem, and Ritchie Cem, as well as the naming of hollows like Hardin Hollow and Blevins Hollow. The transition from the steep elevations of Huckleberry Ridge to the lower homesteads along Dry Hollow Rd illustrates the historical reliance on narrow valley corridors for travel and habitation in this corner of Northeast Tennessee.
