About this map

The Pisgah National Forest dominates the northwestern landscape of this mid-century survey, where the Johns River and Wilson Creek carve through a terrain of named ridges like Grassy Ridge and Larkin Ridge. The industrial and residential center of Lenoir sits at the eastern edge, showing the Southern Railway corridor connecting the town to Hudson and Whitnel. Along the southern border, the Catawba River expands into Rhodhiss Lake, providing a focal point for settlements like Drexel, Valdese, and the county seat at Morganton.
