1961 Map of Wesser

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Nantahala Gorge defines the heart of this landscape, where the Southern railroad and river wind through a narrow corridor toward the sprawling waters of Fontana Lake. This 1961 revision documents the mountain terrain as it appeared following the mid-century hydroelectric developments that transformed the Little Tennessee River. Settlement is concentrated in small pockets like Almond and Wesser, with institutional life centered around sites such as Almond Sch and Nantahala Ch.
