About this map

Zirconia and the surrounding Blue Ridge foothills are defined by a network of summer retreats and water resources in this 2013 survey. The landscape is dotted with several organized recreational sites, including Camp Windy Wood, Camp Green Cove, and Camp Arrowhead, reflecting the area's long-standing tradition as a regional destination for youth camps. Central to the geography is Lake Summit and the Green River, which flows through the heart of the quadrangle before reaching the North Saluda Reservoir to the south.

Smaller settlements such as Tuxedo and Mount Olive anchor the residential corridors, while significant topographic features like Huckleberry Ridge, Panther Mountain, and Rice Knob dominate the terrain. This map also tracks specialized infrastructure such as the Bell Mountain Airport and numerous family-named peaks including McAlpine Mountain and Hammond Mountain, providing researchers with a detailed look at modern land use and historical property divisions.
