The Catawba River and the tracks of the Southern RR dominate the northern landscape of this region, which includes portions of the Pisgah National Forest at the convergence of McDowell, Buncombe, and Rutherford counties. The settlement of Old Fort stands at the northern edge, serving as a gateway to the steep ridges that define the area, including Allison Ridge and Wildcat Knob. The map reveals a network of small mountain communities and rural centers such as Lackey Town, Moffitt Hill, and Davistown, which are supported by several local congregations like Bethlehem Ch and Salem Ch.
