1960 Map of Holston Valley

About this map

South Holston Dam anchors this landscape, holding back the waters of the South Fork Holston River as they wind through the The Knobs. This survey illustrates a mid-century period of recreation and water management, where numerous facilities like the South Holston Boat Dock and Painter Creek Boat Dock have emerged along the complex shoreline. The terrain is deeply wooded, particularly within the Cherokee National Forest and the Cherokee Wildlife Management Area.
