About this map

Walker Fields and the surrounding mountain ridges define this 2010 landscape in Blount County, where the Little River and its numerous forks carve through the terrain. The map captures a detailed view of the regional topography, from the heights of Fodderstack Mountain and High Top to the low-lying Walker Valley. This area is dense with local heritage, marked by a high concentration of burial grounds including Headrick Chapel Cemetery, Brickey Cemetery, and Little Greenbrier Cemetery.

Infrastructure like the Foothills Pkwy and Tremont Rd provides access to points of interest such as Camp Townsend and the The Sinks Bridge. The mapping of small water features like Stillhouse Hollow and Swampy Branch alongside named gaps like Dancing Gap and Caylor Gap offers a granular look at the land's character. Significant landmarks such as the Margarita Craig Dam and the Camp Number 2 Bridge anchor the waterways in this part of the Tennessee mountains.
