About this map

Great Smoky Mountains National Park dominates this high-elevation survey, centered on the ridgeline that forms the Tennessee North Carolina state boundary and the divide between Sevier Co and Swain Co. The landscape is defined by its network of historic passages and high peaks, including Newfound Gap and the prominent Sugarland Mtn. Foot travel is central to this area, with the Appalachian National Scenic Trl tracing the crest while numerous historic paths like the Noland Divide Trl and Thomas Divide Trl descend into the deep valleys. Evidence of local history remains at the Jerry Flats Cem near Jim Ute Br, illustrating the human footprint in these heights before the modern park era. The map details the drainage patterns of the Little River and the numerous prongs and branches that feed into Deep Cr.
