Rocky Top and Lake City anchor this survey of the Tennessee coal mining heartland, where the terrain is marked by steep ridges and narrow hollows. The industrial legacy of the region is evident in place names such as Log Camp Hollow, Slatestone Hollow, and Airshaft Hollow, which speak to the deep-earth extractions that once drove the local economy. The map is particularly dense with family and community graveyards, including the Miners Circle Cem near Briceville and Wiley Cem along the eastern slopes.
