1941 Map of Vesuvius

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

Blue Ridge high country defines this 1930s landscape, where the intersections of early mountain industry and modern recreation are clearly visible. The survey documents the newly established Blue Ridge Parkway and the Appalachian Trail as they trace the ridges above historic settlements like Vesuvius and Steeles Tavern. A legacy of extraction is evident at the Kennedy Mine and Red Mtn Mine, while the State Trout Nursery reflects a shift toward conservation and management of the area's natural resources.
