1947 Map of Columbus City

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Guntersville Lake dominates the center of this 1947 survey, where the waters of the Tennessee River flood the lower valleys around Columbus City. The landscape is a complex mix of inundated lowlands and high ground such as Negro Mountain and Stubblefield Mountain, illustrating the massive topographic shift following the completion of the Guntersville Dam. Significant local landmarks include the Harrison Reservation on the western shore and the sprawling boundaries of Lake Guntersville State Park to the east.
