About this map

The Nantahala National Forest dominates this 1940 survey, where steep terrain and river valleys define the settlement patterns of Graham and Swain counties. The Southern Railway winds through the gorge alongside the Nantahala River, passing the settlement of Hewitt and the Hewitt Ch. Evidence of infrastructure development is visible near Beechertown, where a hydroelectric tunnel is noted as under construction, signaling the era of TVA expansion in the region.
