1936 Map of Clouds

About this map

Straight Creek Mines anchor the southeastern corner of this landscape, situated beneath the heights of Wallen Ridge in a region defined by its narrow valleys and ridges. The Tennessee Valley Authority's massive project is evident along the Powell River, where the rising waters of the Norris Reservoir and its associated Norris Reservation Boundary began to reshape the local geography in the mid-1930s. The map illustrates a rural economy transitioning from traditional milling at Meyer Mill and Curps Mill toward more industrial extraction.
