About this map

The Nantahala National Forest dominates this mid-1930s landscape, where the rugged topography of the Cheoah Mountains and The Hog Back dictates the path of early development. Settlements like Stecoah and Hewitt are closely tied to the water and rail corridors, with the Southern Railway winding through the river gorge alongside State Highway No 10. Local industry is evidenced by several sites including a kiln and the Mill Flume, highlighting the era's reliance on timber and mineral resources.
