About this map

Nantahala River and the Little Tennessee River converge in this 1930s topographic study, a period when the mountain economy relied heavily on gravity-fed infrastructure and early rail. Extensive systems of Mill Flume and Flume Mill sites are visible throughout the drainage basins of Sawmill Creek and Tellico Creek, illustrating the era's timber and milling operations. The Southern Railway winds through the Nantahala Gorge, serving small settlements and stops like Wesser and Frys Siding.
