2013 Map of Jones Cove

About this map

Jones Cove sits at the heart of this Sevier County landscape, where numerous hollows and gaps define the movement of water and travelers through the Great Smoky Mountains foothills. The 2013 topography reveals a complex network of ridges, including Webb Mountain and Rich Mountain, separated by deep-cut valleys like Stillhouse Hollow and Spurgeon Hollow. This era's road system, featuring Henry Town Rd and Pearl Valley Rd, follows the natural contours established by original family settlements and farmsteads. South of the cove, Rocky Grove and Baxter's Orchard represent the enduring agricultural character of the region, while landmarks like Blackgun Gap and Sunset Gap mark the high passes between watersheds. The intricate drainage pattern of Dunn Cr, Webb Cr, and Chucky Cr illustrates how the geography dictated the placement of mountain communities and timber-access routes.
