About this map

The Catoosa Wildlife Management Area occupies the southwestern corner of this survey, marking a rugged transition along the border of Morgan and Cumberland counties. The landscape is defined by the deep incisions of the Tennessee Valley and the winding course of Clear Creek, which features notable landmarks like White Ford and Mile 8. This rural Tennessee terrain is dotted with small, isolated settlements such as Stowers and Glades, alongside significant social centers like the Deer Lodge Academy.

Evidence of early industrial and communal life appears in the placement of Adkins Mill on Adkina Mill Creek and numerous family cemeteries including Myers Cem and Lavender Cem. The transport network of the mid-20th century is represented by a prominent Pipeline cutting through the center of the quadrangle and the crossing at Lavender Bridge. The presence of several churches, such as Flat Rock Ch and Pine Grove Ch, speaks to the importance of localized community hubs in this dissected plateau region.
