2022 Map of Fines Creek

About this map

The mountain settlement of Fines Creek and its surrounding coves define this landscape within the Pisgah National Forest. This modern survey details a complex network of family-named cemeteries and landmarks that speak to generations of residency in the high country, including the Robert Newton Rogers Cem, Thad Rogers Cem, and Haynes Cem. The geography is shaped by prominent gaps and ridges such as Hurricane Gap and Fines Creek Gap, which dictate the local road patterns along Spring Creek and the Bald Fork. Religious life is anchored by established congregations such as the Fines Creek Memorial Baptist Church Cem and the Panther Creek Baptist Church Cem. Near the western edge, the map touches the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where the terrain ascends toward Hurricane Ridge and Hurricane Mtn.
