1965 Map of Skyland

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The French Broad River carves a central path through this landscape south of Asheville, where mid-century transportation networks meet the foothills of the Blue Ridge. The newly expanded Asheville Regional Airport stands as a modern anchor amidst established communities like Arden, Fletcher, and Skyland. The transition from the developed valley floor to the protected wilderness of the Pisgah National Forest is clearly visible, with the Blue Ridge Parkway winding along the northern ridges.
