The significance of this historical “battle” was a rebellion of the returning war veterans and the other citi- zens of McMinn County to ensure a fair election, as the result of a culmination of events leading up the August 1946 county election. “The map is TOHA’s first phase in our ‘Battle of Athens’ project interpreting this period of our region’s history. The map places you on the ground in downtown Athens and provides you with an insight- ful perspective that most have never seen before,” said TOHA Executive Director Gerald D. Hodge Jr. The map gives the locations of signifi- cant events during the battle and added locations that were in existence in 1946 for the visitor’s orientation and education on a walking tour.

    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.

  • Comments on the U.S. Forest Service's Nantahala and Pisgah
    Comments on the U.S. Forest Service’s Nantahala and Pisgah National Forest Proposed Land Management Plan By Donald W. Hyatt - Potomac Valley Chapter ARS http://www.arspvc.org/newsletter.html Introduction The U.S. Forest Service has proposed a Land Management Plan for the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests that will guide their actions for the next 15 years. Having studied this 283-page document carefully the past few weeks and having read other related research, I do have concerns. In this article, I will share my thoughts about preserving the beauty and diversity of this spectacular region. These two National Forests cover over a million acres of forest land and some of the best displays of rhododendrons, azaleas, kalmia, and wildflowers in the Southern Appalachians. It includes Roan Mountain, Mount Mitchell, Grandfather Mountain, the Linville Gorge, and Hooper Bald just to name a few. The plan does not include Gregory Bald since it is in the nearby Great Smoky Mountains National Park and not part of the National Forests. Overview The following four headings summarize my main points but I will explain those assertions in greater detail later in the discussion portion of this document. 1. Biodiversity and Endangered Species Although the plan claims to be addressing biodiversity and rare species, I feel that some of the assumptions are simplistic. The Southern Appalachians have an extremely rich ecosystem. Besides the eighteen Federally endangered species referenced by the document, there are many other unique plant and animal communities in those forest lands that seem to be ignored. Many are quite rare and could be threatened even though they may not have made the endangered species list.

    Huckleberry Knob – Nantahala National Forest, NC Length Difficulty Streams Views Solitude Camping 1.8 mls N/A Hiking Time: 1 hour and 10 minutes with 30 minutes of breaks Elev. Gain: 370 ft Parking: There is space for only a few cars at the Huckleberry Knob Trailhead. 35.31391, -83.99098 If this lot is full, overflow parking is available on the grassy shoulder of the Cherohala Skyway west of the entrance. By Trail Contributor: Zach Robbins Huckleberry Knob, at 5,580 feet, is the highest peak in the remote Unicoi Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. The bald summit is reached by an easy hike from the Cherohala Skyway. Suitable for all levels of hiking experience, the grassy bald provides fantastic 360° views of the Unicoi, Great Smoky, Cheoah, Snowbird, Nantahala, Valley River, Tusquitee, and Cohutta Mountain ranges of southwestern North Carolina, northeastern Georgia, and southeastern Tennessee. This is one of the finest viewpoints in the region, only rivaled by Gregory Bald, Rocky Top, and lookout towers on Shuckstack and Wesser Bald. This is a wonderful spot for a picnic or lazy backcountry camping. While in the area, consider including other nearby trails along the Cherohala Skyway for a full day of short hikes. Mile 0.0 – There is space for only a few cars at the Huckleberry Knob Trailhead. If this lot is full, overflow parking is available on the grassy shoulder of the Cherohala Skyway west of the entrance. The Huckleberry Knob Trail [419] follows a forest road track through beech and maple forests. Mile 0.4 – Follow the shoulder of Oak Knob through wide open grassy fields.

  • {PDF EPUB} Smokies Chronicle a Year of Hiking in Great Smoky Mountains National Park by Ben Anderson National Parks Traveler
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Smokies Chronicle A Year of Hiking in Great Smoky Mountains National Park by Ben Anderson National Parks Traveler. Buildings, statues, monuments, parks, roads – many of their names (or structures) have been removed or subject to intense scrutiny in recent years, even before the racial-justice movement gained greater urgency in 2020. In Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the long-ago naming of some prominent natural landmarks, as opposed to edifices, could in turn be questioned because of individuals’ personal histories, beliefs or affiliations. Let’s look at three such Smokies landmarks – two of which are especially well known and inherently controversial – and the men for whom they are named. The stigma of these place names isn’t dimmed by their predating the Lost Cause mythology/Jim Crow reality that spurred the lionization of scores of Confederates and segregationists well beyond the Smokies. Although likely unfamiliar to most park visitors, Thomas Divide is a major part of the Smokies’ unruly terrain. In fact, if the North Carolina side of the park has a geographic heart and soul, perhaps it can be found in this particular landform. A long, crescent-shaped ridge that extends from near Newfound Gap to the Deep Creek area just north of Bryson City, North Carolina, Thomas Divide loftily separates the watersheds of two lovely streams that eventually flow into the Tuckasegee River just outside the park: Deep Creek and the Oconaluftee River. Thomas Divide Trail, one of the park’s longer paths at nearly 14 miles, traces most of the divide’s crest that rises to roughly a mile high and dips to just over 2,000 feet elevation.
