About this map

The complex shoreline of the Powell River and Big Ridge Lake defines this portion of Campbell County, where the topography is a dense network of ridges and hollows. Family history is etched into the landscape through dozens of burial grounds, including the Lays Cemetery, Blue Springs Cemetery, and the Longmire Cemetery. The map captures a transition between recreation and resource extraction, featuring the Tanasi Council Girl Scout Camp and the Hickory Star Boat Dock alongside industrial sites like the Newton Hill Quarry and the Wilson Prospect.

Many of the landforms bear the names of early inhabitants, such as Williamson Ridge, Shelby Hollow, and Brantley Hollow. The intricate waterway is punctuated by numerous islands, including Wood Duck Island, Gull Island, and Pilot Island. This area, deeply carved by Clear Creek and its tributaries, shows a landscape where isolated hollows and high points like Weavers Knob have dictated the winding paths of local roads such as Oak Chapel Rd and Lindamood Rd.
