2013 Map of Jacksboro

About this map

Jacksboro and the surrounding Tennessee foothills are defined by a complex geography of narrow hollows and ridge-lines that separate the developed corridors from the expansive waters of Norris Lake. This 2013 survey documents a landscape where modern infrastructure like the Campbell County Airport and Interstate 75 coexist with traditional mountain landmarks. The topography is etched with numerous named hollows, including Bearwallow Hollow and Queener Hollow, reflecting a legacy of family settlement and land use. Water management and recreation are central to the area's character, visible in the proximity of Cove Lake and the various boat docks such as Twin Cove Boat Dock and Lindsay Mill Dock that line the jagged shores of the reservoir. To the west, the steep rise toward Fork Mountain and High Point creates a natural barrier, while the Indian Grave Tunnel serves as a critical engineering link through the terrain near Indian Gap.
