2010 Map of Glade Valley

About this map

Glade Valley serves as a central hub in this high-country landscape, where the Blue Ridge Mountains descend into a series of gaps and overlooks. The area's settlement history is preserved through a network of rural churches and cemeteries, such as Macedonia Church and the Woodruff Cemetery, which dot the hillsides along roads like Glade Valley Rd. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevations, including Bullhead Mountain and Stone Mountain, with the latter anchoring Stone Mountain State Park in the southern portion of the sheet. Modern recreation is evident at Camp Cheerio and Camp Albert Butler, while the Blue Ridge Pkwy snakes through the western ridges, providing access to Mahogany Rock Overlook and Devils Garden Overlook. This survey captures a mix of longstanding family-named landmarks and protected parklands, reflecting the transition from agricultural mountain life to a landscape shaped by conservation and seasonal retreats.
