2013 Map of Laurel Fork
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
Big Reed Island Creek and its many tributaries, including Stillhouse Branch and Pipestem Branch, wind through this upland landscape along the Blue Ridge. Small settlements such as Nester, Crooked Oak, and Gladesboro are connected by a network of winding roads like Old Jackson Mill Road and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The terrain is defined by high points and passes, most notably Groundhog Mountain, Orchard Gap, and Willis Gap. This area retains a rural character, with landmarks such as the Blue Ridge Tabernacle and Christian Service Camp serving the local community. The presence of Light's Farm and various mountain knobs like Jackson Knob and Gibson Knob illustrates a pattern of dispersed homesteads and high-elevation land use typical of Carroll County's eastern edge.
