1960 Map of Grandfather Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
The Tennessee Valley Divide snakes across the high ridges of this landscape, separating the headwaters of the Watauga River from the south-flowing Linville River and Wilson Creek. This map, based on a 1960 field check with 1978 updates, showcases the developing recreation and conservation corridor centered around the Blue Ridge Parkway. Landmarks like the U.S. Weather Station and Julian Price Memorial Park are established alongside the deep-seated timber and small-scale farming history of the region.
