1955 Map of Flat Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Pine Mountain and Black Mountain dominate this Central Appalachian landscape, where the Kentucky-Virginia state line follows the high crests. The area is defined by its deep drainage patterns, with the headwaters of the Cumberland River flowing west while the North Fork Pound River and South Fork Pound River lead toward the North Fork Lake basin. Small mountain settlements like Flat Gap and Gilley are anchored by community landmarks including Cane Patch Church and the Flat Gap Sch.
