1966 Map of Tallassee

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Little Tennessee River winds through a dramatic landscape of steep ridges and deep valleys, where the Chilhowee Dam creates the expansive Chilhowee Lake. This mid-1960s survey, updated in the 1980s, documents a community transition where traditional riverside settlements like Tallassee and Chota sit near the boundaries of the Cherokee National Forest and the Great Smoky Mtns National Park. The topography is defined by the massive spine of Chilhowee Mountain, punctuated by remote landmarks like Stony Grave Gap and Chilogatee Gap.
