About this map

Toxaway Ch and the Oakland Cem stand near the northern edge of this terrain where the Tenn Valley Divide snakes through the high country. Surveyed shortly after the war, this landscape is defined by the dramatic descent of the Toxaway River, Thompson River, and Whitewater River as they flow south across the state line. Significant landmarks like Toxaway Falls and Rainbow Falls mark the steep elevation changes of the Blue Ridge escarpment. Local travel in the 1940s relied on routes such as Bohaynee Road and Bearwallow Road, connecting small settlements like Oakland and Reid before the wilderness of the Nantahala National Forest and Sumter National Forest takes over. The map preserves the location of isolated mountain homes and the complex network of ridges, including Hogback Ridge and Narrow Rock Ridge.
