About this map

The French Broad River carves a deep, winding course through the Pisgah National Forest and Cherokee Mountains at the border of Tennessee and North Carolina. This pre-war landscape is defined by its isolated mountain gaps and the river-bound community of Paint Rock. The Southern railroad line tracks the southern bank of the river, connecting riverside hamlets like Lanceville to the wider region.
