1973 Map of Lake City

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Lake City and the surrounding mountain ridges of Anderson County are depicted here in the early 1970s, showcasing a landscape deeply shaped by the coal industry and early TVA developments. Extensive strip mines scar the heights of Cross Mountain and Vowell Mountain, while the valleys are dotted with historic mining communities like Briceville, Fraterville, and Minersville. The industrial legacy is further evidenced by a dismantled cable RR near Beech Grove and multiple rail lines following the contours of the land.
