1935 Map of Park

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

Unaka National Forest defines the upper corner of this 1935 advance sheet, where the high terrain of the Southern Appalachians meets the borderlands of North Carolina and Virginia. The small settlement of Park is the primary focal point of human activity, situated near the headwaters of Green Creek. This map, compiled from early aerial photography by the Department of the Interior and the Tennessee Valley Authority, captures a specific moment in the mid-1930s when much of this high-country landscape remained undeveloped. The presence of the Washington Co and Grayson Co lines at the very edge of the quadrangle highlights the complex jurisdictional boundaries that define this region of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
