2016 Map of Globe
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Pisgah National Forest dominates the terrain of this 2016 survey, where the dramatic slopes of the Blue Ridge fall away into the deep valleys of the Johns River. This section of western North Carolina, situated along the Watauga and Caldwell County line, is defined by an intricate network of ridgelines like Backbone Ridge and Pack Hill Ridge. The landscape is dotted with small mountain settlements including Globe, Mulberry, and Upton, which are connected by winding forest roads and the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway near the northern border.
