About this map

The Poor Valley Ridge and Cumberland Mountain define the northern corridor of this landscape, where the historic Old Wilderness Rd follows the same path as the Daniel Boone Trail and Old Wilderness Road. This northern section is dominated by the Cumberland Gap National Historical Park, providing a view of the gateway through which early settlers moved westward. To the south, the Powell River carves a serpentine path, creating dramatic features like Ellison Bend and the Double S Bend around Jack Nance Island.
