About this map

The Nantahala National Forest and Pisgah National Forest converge in this high-elevation region of North Carolina, where the triple county line of Haywood, Jackson, and Transylvania meets. The landscape is defined by massive peaks like Richland Balsam and Sam Knob, with the Blue Ridge Parkway winding through the gaps. In the lower valleys, evidence of rural community life appears at the Charley Creek Sch, tucked below the ridges of Wolf Mountain.
