2013 Map of Ducktown

About this map

Ducktown and the surrounding mining district of the Copper Basin define this southeastern Tennessee landscape. The Ocoee River serves as the central drainage, its course marked by industrial infrastructure such as the Ocoee Flume and Ocoee Number Three Lake. The terrain is deeply partitioned by ridges and peaks, notably Little Frog Mountain and the prominent Copper Basin Ketchersid Mountain overlooking the settlement at Chanceytown. Local history is preserved in named sites like Hedden Grave and Jenkins Grave, while the region's rail heritage is visible at Stansbury Siding along the northern banks of Campbell Cove Lake. Smaller communities such as Postelle, Dogtown, and McHarg are connected by a network of local roads including Chanceytown Rd and Postelle Rd, reflecting a landscape shaped by both its mountain geography and long-standing industrial presence.
