1952 Map of Well Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Cumberland Mountain and the Log Mountains dominate the northern terrain of this mid-century survey, descending into the fertile Powell Valley. The landscape is a complex network of ridges and hollows, where the Tennessee Valley Divide separates north-flowing waters like Tackett Creek from the drainage basin of the Powell River. By this era, the lower elevations are shaped by the backwaters of Norris Lake, which reached an elevation of 1020 feet, creating a new shoreline around the historic settlement at Well Spring.
