2022 Map of Soddy

About this map

Walden Ridge and the dramatic Cumberland Escarpment dominate this landscape, where the plateau drops sharply toward the Tennessee River valley. The sprawling community of Soddy-Daisy serves as the focal point of the lowland, joined by smaller settlements like Soddy, Bakewell, and Mowbray. This topography reveals the intricate relationship between the mountainous terrain and human settlement, with numerous family burial grounds such as Millsaps Cem, Granny Walker Cem, and the Soddy Presbyterian Cem dotting the ridges and hollows. The eastern edge is defined by the waters of Dallas Lake and the various branches of Soddy Creek, while the high ground features unique landmarks like the Mount Bakewell Airfield and the sharp divide of Jones Gap. Local geography is further detailed by numerous named peaks and ridges, including Flat Top Mountain and Richey Ridge.
