2019 Map of Cliffield Mountain

About this map

The Narrows and the Hungry River carve through the high elevations of the Blue Ridge, defining a landscape where isolated settlements and family burial grounds are tucked into gaps and along ridges. This part of the western North Carolina mountains is characterized by steep summits like Cliffield Mtn and Raccoon Mtn, which separate the drainages of the Little Hungry River and Green River. The map documents a cluster of faith-based communities around Dana and Union Hill, each anchored by historical institutions such as the Union Hill Holiness Baptist Church and several associated graveyards.
