1946 Map of Reid

About this map

Oakland and the nearby Oakland Cem serve as focal points in this high-altitude landscape where the Blue Ridge divides the headwaters of several major river systems. In the mid-1940s, the area was characterized by a transition from the Southern Railway corridor in the north down toward the multi-state boundaries of the Pisgah, Nantahala, and Sumter National Forests. The map details a complex drainage network featuring the Toxaway River, Horsepasture River, and Whitewater River, along with dramatic elevation drops at Rainbow Falls and Windy Falls.
