1964 Map of Thunderhead Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Great Smoky Mountains high country along the border of Tennessee and North Carolina is defined here by the winding Appalachian Trail. During the mid-1960s, this landscape remained a dense network of ridges and deep drainage basins, centered on prominent peaks like Thunderhead Mtn and the well-known Rocky Top. The map reveals the intricate topographic detail of the Smokies before heavy modern foot traffic, showing the primitive state of landmarks such as the Spence Field Shelter and Bote Mountain Road.
