2003 Map of Iron Mountain Gap

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

Tiger Valley and the surrounding highlands are documented here at the intersection of the Cherokee National Forest and Pisgah National Forest. This mapping preserves a complex network of upland family cemeteries and small rural congregations, such as the Woodby Hill Cem and Piney Grove Ch, reflecting the deep-seated settlement patterns along the Tennessee and North Carolina border. The Appalachian Trail follows the high ridgeline through Iron Mountain Gap, passing landmark elevations like Little Bald Knob and Little Rock Knob. Distinctive local infrastructure is visible near Clarketown, where Minnow Rearing Pools are situated along the drainage of Clarke Creek. The geography is defined by the steep descent of the Little Doe River and Tiger Creek, where small settlements like Hopson emerged at the feet of Stone Mountain and Laurel Ridge.
