1961 Map of Fontana Dam
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Fontana Village serves as the primary hub on this 1961 survey, situated at the intersection of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Nantahala National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the reservoir's fingers reaching into deep valleys, reflecting the post-dam topography of Graham and Swain counties. Near the northern shore, the former settlement of Proctor is visible, along with its associated Proctor Field Gap Cem, providing a window into the communities that existed before the area's massive hydroelectric transformation.
