About this map

Oliver Springs serves as the focal point of this mid-century landscape where the industrial and rural worlds meet at the base of Walden Ridge. The survey reveals a complex network of resource extraction and community life, anchored by the Windrock mining settlements and the prominent presence of the Southern and Louisville and Nashville railroads. These transit lines were vital for moving coal and timber from the steep slopes of Wolf Ridge and Big Fork Ridge down into the Tennessee Valley.
