    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR MISCELLANEOUS FIELD STUDIES UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MAP MF-1587-C PAMPHLET MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL OF THE SNOWBIRD ROADLESS AREA GRAHAM COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA By Frank G. Lesure, U.S. Geological Survey and Mark L. Chatman, U.S. Bureau of Mines 1983 Studies Related to Wilderness Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and related acts, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the Snowbird Roadless Area (08-061), Nantahala National Forest, Graham County, North Carolina. The area was classified as a further planning area during the Second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE II) by the U.S. Forest Service, January 1979. MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL SUMMARY STATEMENT The Snowbird Roadless Area includes 8490 acres of rugged wooded terrain in the Nantahala National Forest, Graham County, N. C. The area is underlain by folded metasedimentary rocks of the Great Smoky Group of Late Proterozoic age, and has a low potential for mineral resources.

    1 | Mountains-to-Sea Trail Last Updated 11/12/2018 View from the Mountains-to-Sea Trail at Clingmans Dome Photo by Danny Bernstein Peak to Peak—MST Segment 1 Clingmans Dome to Waterrock Knob By Jim Grode The 46.8-mile-long Segment 1 of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) be- gins in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP), straddling Ten- nessee and North Carolina. Newfound Gap Road (US 441), which travels north from Cherokee, North Carolina, to Gatlinburg, Tennessee, forms the backbone of the park and climbs to over 5,000 feet at Newfound Gap. If national parks have specialties, the Smokies is known as a hiker’s park. The scenery is diverse: mountain views, old-growth trees, waterfalls, streams, and more shades of green than a paint chart. Mile for mile, you’ll Segment 1 | 2 find hiking in the park easier than in the neighboring national forests. Even though there are no blazes on Smokies trails, they are so well marked at every intersection that you can follow them with confidence. (Still, stop at a Visitor Center and pick up a Great Smoky Mountains Trail Map for $1.00.) The Smokies may be the most visited national park in the country but only the roads and parking lots are congested. With over 800 miles of trails, even popular trails are not very busy. The trails in the Smokies are well maintained and well marked. Hikers will appreciate that they’re in a na- tional park. The Smokies, in a temperate rainforest, have a great variety of wildflowers, from the first bloodroot in March to the last asters in Octo- ber, as well as more tree species than all of Europe.

For purposes of compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, we concur that the following properties are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under the criterion cited: Ea lL4 George B.

The boundary justification proposes following right-of-way along SR 1388, but does not indicate how much right-of-way exists. Thus, we will assume the boundary follows the ditch line along SR 1388. Otherwise, the boundaries are acceptable to us. Stecoah School. This 1 931 school is eligible under Criterion A for 002S education, as one of two consolidated schools built in Graham County prior to World War II. We also believe the school is eligible under Criterion C as a representative example of consolidation-era school design incorporating the local stone-building tradition.

But it’s just one part of Dayton’s bicycle connection. Huffy Bicycles was a major bicycle brand built in the Dayton region and Birthplace of Aviation spurred the region’s interest in bicycling and recreation trails. Today, more than 330 miles of paved trails connect many of our aviation heritage sites, including the Wright brothers’ neighborhood and the flying field where they perfected the airplane. This panel will explain how the bicycle figured in the development of the airplane, how the nation’s largest paved trail network connects several of our aviation heritage sites, and how the Greater Dayton Region is working to connect bicycling with aviation heritage to increase our attractiveness as a tourism destination and make the Dayton region a better place to live. The panel will supplement a mobile workshop being prepared jointly by the National Aviation Heritage Alliance and the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park. Speaker(s): Timothy R. Gaffney, Director of Communications National Aviation Heritage Alliance. Tim Gaffney is a Dayton native and retired aviation writer for the Dayton Daily News. He is the author of 15 books for children and adults, mainly on aviation and space topics.
