1935 Map of Craggy Pinnacle

About this map

Pisgah National Forest encompasses the high ridges and steep valleys of this mid-1930s mountain landscape. The survey captures a network of small settlements and family landmarks, such as Riceville and Summerhaven, situated along the winding paths of Beetree Creek and Shope Creek. Public life is centered around rural institutions like Browns Chapel and Paint Fork Sch, while the presence of the Blackberry Inn and Mountain Meadows Inn suggests the area's emerging role as a retreat. The landscape is also defined by essential infrastructure of the era, including the Beetree Dam and its associated Beetree Reservoir, which regulated water for the region. On the higher elevations, features like the Fire Tower and Craggy Pinnacle stand as sentinels over a terrain marked by named gaps and knobs like Paint Fork Gap and Richland Knob.
