Tusquitee and the scattered mountain settlements of western North Carolina appear here during a mid-1930s survey conducted by the Tennessee Valley Authority. The landscape is dominated by the steep ridges of the Nantahala National Forest, where life centered around small communities and subsistence features like the unnamed Mine and the Shooting Creek Vineyard. The settlement pattern follows the narrow valley floors, primarily along Shooting Creek and Tusquitee Creek, where rural institutions served the mountain families.
