1946 Map of Ewing

About this map

The rugged boundary between Kentucky and Virginia is defined here by the massive ridge of Cumberland Mountain, a landscape deeply tied to the migration history of the Boone Daniel Trail. Within the Cumberland Gap National Historical Park, landmarks like Sand Cave and the White Rocks lookout tower dominate the high ground above Poor Valley. To the north, the industrial character of the region is evident in the strip mines dotting Little Black Mountain near the mining community of Alva.
