Pisgah National Forest dominates this landscape where the boundaries of Buncombe, Henderson, and Transylvania counties converge. This 1960s survey illustrates a region largely dedicated to conservation and public management, divided into specialized zones like the Bent Creek Experimental Forest and several wildlife restoration areas. The winding route of the Blue Ridge Parkway traverses the high ridges, passing landmarks such as Buck Spring Gap and providing access to the sprawling high-altitude terrain.
