About this map

Norris Lake and the Powell River dominate the landscape of Campbell and Anderson Counties, where the complex shoreline of the reservoir reaches deep into the Appalachian ridges. The settlement of Demory sits at a crossroads of winding mountain lanes, while Grantsboro occupies a peninsula formed by the winding waters of the lake. This topography is defined by prominent elevations like Bald Knob and Tanbark Knob, separated by numerous namesake drainage basins including Stillhouse Hollow and Sugar Hollow.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of family burial grounds scattered throughout the ridges, such as Baker Forge Memorial Cem, Walters Cem, and Sharp Cem. Modern development is visible at the Deerfield Resort Airport and surrounding resort infrastructure on the eastern shore, contrasting with the protected lands of Cove Creek Wildlife. The northern portion of the map transitions into the established streets of La Follette, where the terrain meets the residential and industrial outskirts of the city.
