1948 Map of Mt Carmel

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Guntersville Lake dominates this Alabama landscape, where the Tennessee River flows through a complex geography of ridges and flooded hollows. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) mapped the region in the late 1940s, documenting a time when river transport and local agriculture were intersecting with new infrastructure like the Houston Bridge and Guntersville Municipal Airport. The map shows how the impounded waters created numerous fingers of land and islands, such as Buck Island and Goat Island, while carving out distinct points like Ft Deposit Point and Hale Point.
