1961 Map of Noland Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Fontana Lake dominates this landscape where the Tuckasegee River and Little Tennessee River converge, showing the deep-water fingers reaching into the surrounding mountain ridges. Much of the northern terrain is preserved within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, while the southern reaches are managed as Nantahala National Forest and Nantahala Game Lands. The map records the remnants of upland life through several family burial sites such as McClure Cem and Woody Cem, alongside the Mt Zion Ch. The rugged topography is defined by prominent peaks and gaps, including Pilot Knob, Potato Hill, and Chambers Creek Gap, documenting the intricate network of ridges and coves that shaped local settlement and access before and after the creation of the reservoir.
