1959 Map of Trout Dale

About this map

The town of Trout Dale and the surrounding high country of the Iron Mountains define this mid-century survey of the Grayson County border. Settlement is concentrated along the Buchanan Highway and the B F Buchanan Highway, following the valley floors where Fox Creek and Little Wilson Creek carve through the massif. The map documents a transition from the industrial character of Fairwood, located near the Grayson Highlands State Park boundary, to the smaller agricultural hamlets of Grant and Volney.
