1935 Map of Watauga Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

Elizabethton serves as the industrial and population hub of this 1930s landscape, situated at the confluence of the Watauga River and the Doe River. The surrounding terrain is defined by the heavy presence of the Cherokee National Forest, with significant mountain ranges such as Holston Mountain and the Iron Mountains constraining development to the river valleys. Evidence of the region's extractive economy is visible through landmarks like the Manganese Mine near Hampton and the Hodge Ore Bank.
