1956 Map of Linville Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The dramatic topography of the Linville Gorge dominates this mid-century survey, where the Linville River carves through the landscape between the heights of Sitting Bear Mtn and Hawksbill Mtn. The region is defined by its recreation and conservation history, featuring the Pisgah National Forest, Linville Caverns, and the Tablerock State Fish Hatchery. Transport networks like the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Kistler Memorial Highway provide access to these remote elevations.
