1940 Map of Hewitt

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Nantahala River carves through this portion of the Nantahala National Forest, where the Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS recorded the terrain during the early 1940s. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation of the Cheoah Mountains and Snowbird Mts, with the Appalachian Trail traversing ridgelines through Sassafras Gap and Stecoah Gap. Local life centered around small settlements like Stecoah, Beechertown, and Hidetown, with several family burial grounds including Randolph Cem and Jenkins Cem established in the valleys.
