About this map

Pigeon River and the Gatalooghee River converge at the heart of this mid-1930s survey, marking a landscape of significant industrial and conservation transition. The presence of a Power Plant, Surge Tank, and multiple segments of Mill Flume along Raven Fork suggest the area's role in early hydropower development, likely managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority. This industrial activity sits adjacent to the emerging Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Cherokee National Forest, with the Appalachian Trail winding along the state line.
