USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The Toe River and North Toe River carve through the center of this Mitchell County landscape, where the town of Spruce Pine serves as a nexus for mining and transportation. The Clinchfield RR tracks follow the river's winding course, passing through the Vance Tunnel and Ridge Tunnel near Altapass. Mining operations are a defining feature of the local economy and geography, evidenced by the Chestnut Flats Mine, Gusher Knob Mine, and International Mine.
