Cumberland River and Nashville, TN, USA
SL2-81-198 (22 June 1973) --- Making its way through the rugged Cumberland Plateau, the Cumberland River winds through the city of Nashville in north central Tennessee (36.0N, 87.0W) where the heavily forested upland terrain produces a landscape of rolling hills with elevations up to 1,100 ft. and narrow valleys. Before the advent of modern communications and transportation in this region, widely scattered and isolated communities had little contact with the outside world. Photo credit: NASA
