1979 Map of Gatlinburg
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
Gatlinburg is the central hub of this late-1970s survey, showing a landscape defined by the transition from a growing mountain town to the protected wilderness of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The map documents the expansion of tourism infrastructure, featuring a Ski Slope, the Sugarlands Visitor Information Center, and multiple housing developments like Chalet Village and Greystone Heights. To the west, the rugged terrain of Cove Mountain and the West Prong Little Pigeon River valley contain older traces of settlement, including Covemont Ch and several family burial sites such as Crowson Cem and Banner Cem.
