Gatlinburg and its surrounding mountain terrain are documented here at a time of significant recreational development and historical preservation. The town center, marked by the Gatlinburg Post Office, sits at the confluence of the West Prong Little Pigeon River and several mountain branches. The landscape is dotted with ancestral burial grounds, including the White Oak Flats Cemetery, Ownby Cemetery, and Forks of River Cemetery, which serve as vital markers for local genealogy. Outside the main settlement, the area transitions into a network of high ridges like Cove Mountain and Mount Harrison. The presence of established sites such as Camp Le Conte, Trotter Camp, and the Millsap Picnic Grounds reflects the long-standing role of the area as a gateway to the high peaks. Notable natural landmarks like the Laurel Falls Waterfall and the King Hollow Spring highlight the abundance of water sources throughout the drainage basins of the Little River.
