The Blue Ridge Parkway winds through the high elevations of Avery County in this 1960 survey, a landscape defined by the prominent Blue Ridge Mountains and the headwaters of the Linville River. The county seat of Newland serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller mountain communities like Montezuma, Linville, and Pineola. Local industry and land use are evidenced by a trout rearing station near Anthony Creek and an open pit mine on the western slopes of Big Elk Mountain.
