1949 Map of Columbus City
USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Tennessee River dominates this landscape as it widens into the Guntersville Reservoir, creating a complex shoreline around Columbus City and Meltonsville. The terrain transitions sharply from the inundated lowlands to the high ridges of Gunters Mountain and Sand Mountain. This 1949 edition by the Tennessee Valley Authority documents the post-impoundment topography, showing how the reservoir boundary winded through gaps like Village Ford Gap and Smith Gap.
