1946 Map of Prentiss

About this map

The Appalachian Trail winds through the high ridges of the Nantahala National Forest in this 1946 survey of Macon County, updated with 1970s aerial data. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation change from peaks like Albert Mtn and Yellow Bald down to the fertile valleys of the Little River and Tennessee River. This region exhibits a distinct mountain economy focused on the water power of the creeks, evidenced by several sites including Addington Mill, McClure Mill, and McDonald Mill.
