1946 Map of Sam Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Nantahala National Forest and Pisgah National Forest converge in this mid-century topographic study, which captures a high-elevation landscape of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The terrain is defined by dramatic peaks and balds, including the towering Richland Balsam and Sam Knob. Small human markers are scattered across the wilderness, such as the Charley Creek Sch and the newly developing Blue Ridge Parkway winding along the ridgelines near Devils Courthouse.
