About this map

Cumberland Plateau terrain dominates this 2016 survey of the Tennessee highlands, where the Grundy and Marion county lines meet amidst a complex network of coves and ridges. Small settlements like Lankford Town and Comfort anchor the map, connected by winding mountain roads such as Old Stage Coach Rd and Pidgeon Springs Rd. Local heritage is preserved in sites like the Oak Grove Cem and Gregg Cem, located north of the dramatic escarpments.

The hydrography of the region is defined by the descent of Big Fiery Gizzard Cr and its many tributaries, which have carved out notable landmarks including Foster Falls and Raven Point. The map illustrates a landscape where industrial history, indicated by the Tram Rd, meets modern conservation and recreation, evidenced by the numerous named points and hollows like Sugarcamp Hollow and Denny Cove that draw explorers to these bluffs.
