2000 Map of Silers Bald

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

Great Smoky Mountains National Park straddles the high ridges of the Tennessee and North Carolina border on this late-twentieth-century survey. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage basins of the Little River and Goshen Prong, where numerous branches like Monteith Branch and Fish Camp Prong carve through the deep hollows. The Appalachian National Scenic Trail follows the highest elevations along the state line, crossing prominent landmarks such as Silers Bald, Mt Buckley, and the precarious stretch known as The Narrows. This map illustrates the primitive infrastructure of the backcountry, including the Bridle Path and remote locations like Cascades Campsite. From the Ben Parton Lookout to Buckhorn Bald, the topography reveals a wilderness managed for conservation, where the labels of numerous gaps and knobs document the local nomenclature of this high-altitude terrain.
