1905 Map of Pisgah

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The High Peaks of the Blue Ridge dominate this landscape, anchored by the prominent Big Pisgah Mt and the seasonal retreat at Buck Spring Lodge. Centered on the headwaters of the French Broad River, the map documents a transition from the developing valley centers of Waynesville and Brevard to the expansive, timbered tracts of the Pisgah Forest. Transportation is defined by the early winding routes of the French Broad Road and the Southern RR, which connects small riverside communities like Blantyre and Etowah.
