About this map

The Cumberland Escarpment defines the transition from the Sequatchie River valley floor up to the high plateau of Walden Ridge. This mid-century survey captures a landscape structured by the steep ascent, where the Alvin C. York Highway winds through the valley while small upland communities like Lewis Chapel and Davis Chapel maintain their own schools and churches on the ridge. The geography is punctuated by deep gaps such as Henson Gap and Cowpen Gap, which served as vital passage points between the valley and the high country.
