A map of the park itself sets this record apart from images of its peaks and valleys, showing how the land is laid out across the Tennessee and North Carolina state line. Congress authorized the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 1934, but assembling the land took years, as the federal government bought tracts from logging companies and from families who had farmed and lived in the mountain coves for generations. Maps from this period help explain how a park with so many separate parcels, trails and roads came together. Look at how the boundary follows the crest of the range and where the main highways and valleys run.
