USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
Sweden Cove and the surrounding peaks of the Cumberland Plateau define this landscape, where early 20th-century mountain life is etched into the topography. The map centers on the small settlement of Orme, located at the base of Orme Mountain near the Franklin-Marion county line. The presence of Strip Mines on the ridge above Lodge and the Lookout Tower overlooking Main Cove reveal an economy tied to both timber and coal extraction.
