Plowers plowing the snow road, Newfound Gap, TennesseeGreat Smoky Mountains National ParkNaturally, the individual pieces of equipment have various limitations, and their specific uses match together to produce a unified snow removal operation over the entire range of elevation from Newfound Gap to Oconaluftee and Sugarlands. Here the V-plow pushes the berm back in an effort to widen the cleared roadway. This plow is the bruiser, the heavy-duty unit. It is large enough to handle the heaviest snow accumulation we have been faced with.Snow Removal; February 1964 Monthly Report, II-R-SR-7884, Physical Facilities - Roads - Snow Removal Operations

This view if looking south, showing a section of the Little Tennessee River where Abrams Creek joins it. Old Abraham or Ooskuah of ChilhoweeGreat Smoky Mountains National ParkWilburn's Historical Paper No. IV, Plate I. This view if looking south, showing a section of the Little Tennessee River where Abrams Creek joins it. The concrete bridge in the foreground, under which the creek flows, is a viaduct of Federal Highway 129, which highway runs along north, or right bank of the river for a good many miles through this area, and also skirts the southeast border to the Park something 10 miles. The flat bottom land across the river in the background in the vicinity of the buildings and the team plowing is the area that was occupied by the Cherokee town, Chilhowee, as represented by the Timberlake map, illustrative Plate III in this paper. (Photo No. IV-M-405) For placement relative to the Park, refer to the WEST half of the topographic map of the Park published by the USGS in 1934. It was originally planned to take all of the Abrams Creek area into the Park. But it is generally understood that the Aluminum Company of America has a proposed hydro-electric development that will flood this area. Floor-line markings indicate that the water will be raised 18 to 20 feet above the surface of the bridge.Old Abraham or Ooskuah of Chilhowee, III-P-5203, History - Mountain People
