1946 Map of Durham

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Lookout Mountain dominates this mid-century survey of Northwest Georgia, defined by the sharp transition from the elevated plateau down into the Chattanooga Valley. The rugged topography is etched by deep drainages like Sitton Gulch Creek and Little Mama Gulch, much of which is protected within Cloudland Canyon State Park. Settlement patterns follow the geology, with the community of Durham (also known as Pittsburg) positioned near the plateau's heights, while Cassandra and Cooper Heights occupy the lower valley floors near the Georgia and Alabama Scenic Highway.
