1936 Map of Cave Creek

About this map

Tennessee River frontage dominates this mid-1930s landscape along the border of Roane and Loudon Counties. The river's winding path is defined by significant features like Bacon Shoals and a series of river islands, including Seven Islands, Wilson Island, and Bogart Island. The surrounding terrain is heavily ridged, with Chestnut Ridge and Dug Ridge running parallel to the water, shaping the location of local farm-to-market routes and small upland settlements like Grays Hill.
