2022 Map of Glendale Springs

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Glendale Springs and the surrounding high-country communities of Ashe County are defined by the winding course of the South Fork New River and the high elevations of the Blue Ridge. This modern survey illustrates the proximity of historical mountain settlements like Othello, Idlewild, and Obids to the protected corridor of the Blue Ridge Parkway. The terrain is characterized by prominent peaks and ridges including Frenches Knob, Henson Mtn, and Nettle Knob, which dictate the local road patterns and land use. The presence of numerous gaps, such as Benge Gap and Calloway Gap, highlights the importance of these natural passes for regional movement through the Appalachians. To the northwest, the edge of West Jefferson signals the transition toward more concentrated township development, while the rest of the sheet remains largely dominated by a network of creeks like South Beaver Creek and Wolfpen Cr.
