1947 Map of Craggy Pinnacle

About this map

Pisgah National Forest covers much of this landscape, where the Blue Ridge Parkway winds across the high ridges of the Great Craggy Mountains. The 1946 field check captured a moment of early tourism and mountain life, evidenced by landmarks like the Blackberry Inn and the educational grounds of Camp Sequoyah. High-altitude features such as the Lookout Tower on Little Snowball Mtn and the remote Rattlesnake Lodge sit alongside several family-named landmarks including Anderson Cem and Ballard Cem.
