The Management Zones diagram is a planning drawing rather than a view, and its subject is the Blue Ridge Parkway itself, the scenic road that winds along the crest of the Appalachians through Virginia and North Carolina. Parkway zoning divides the corridor into areas that are managed for different levels of use, protection and development, so the diagram shows how a long, narrow park was organized on paper before anyone built a trail or a pull-off. Its value lies in showing the park as a system of decisions, which is worth noticing when you compare it with the postcard-style scenes of overlooks and mountain meadows that usually represent the parkway.
