USGS Topo · Published 1941About this map
The Cumberland Plateau in the late 19th century is defined by steep escapements and the early development of resort and educational communities. High on the ridge, the settlement of Sewanee sits near the Cowan Tunnel, a critical engineering feat for the Nashville Chattanooga and St. Louis RR Main Line. The topography is marked by deep coves such as Sweden Cove and Hubbard Cove, which dictate the paths of travel between the plateau and the valley floors.
