1948 Map of King Cove

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Putman Mountain and Backbone Mountain dominate this corner of the Alabama-Tennessee border, where the Tennessee Valley Authority and U.S. Geological Survey documented a landscape defined by deep coves and karst features. The 1948 field examination recorded the remote settlement of Francisco in the northeast corner, situated near the headwaters of Pigeon Creek. The area is characterized by significant geological depressions such as Hambrick Sinks and Cunningham Sinks, illustrating the unique subterranean drainage of the region.
