Little Switzerland sits atop the Tennessee Valley Divide, where the High Country of the Blue Ridge transitions between Mitchell and McDowell counties. The area is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, with the Blue Ridge Pkwy winding along the ridge past McCall Gap and Gillespie Gap. This map documents a dense network of family-named cemeteries such as Collis Cem, Lonon Cem, and Snow Hill Cem, which are key for tracing the early settlers of these mountain slopes.
