Glenville and the surrounding high country of the Cullowhee Mountains are captured here in 1935, just as the Tennessee Valley Authority was conducting advanced surveys of the Tuckasegee River basin. This topographic record shows the area before major hydroelectric developments transformed the river valley. The landscape is defined by small, isolated settlements like Erastus, Bessie, and Snookville, each connected by narrow trails and the emerging State Highway No 106.
