1959 Map of Trout Dale

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Trout Dale serves as the central hub of this mountain landscape during the late 1950s, situated near the intersection of the Dickey Highway and the Buchanan Highway. The map illustrates a high-elevation terrain dominated by Iron Mountain and Pine Mountain, where the Appalachian Trail follows the ridge lines through the Jefferson National Forest. For local historians, the sheet is exceptionally detailed with family-named cemeteries and landmarks, such as Bolt Cem, Campbell Cem, and Blevins Cem, which are scattered among the steep hollows of Fox Creek and Comers Creek. South of the mountain crests, the landscape opens into Grayson Highlands State Park and settlements like Grant and Volney. The presence of a strip mine near the northern border and numerous cemeteries alongside Comers Creek Ch and Liberty Hill Ch reflects the rural community's reliance on the narrow valley floors for both agriculture and industry.
