The image is a vintage postcard featuring the "W" Road at Walden's Ridge, Tennessee. The road is named for the three sharp switchback curves that form the shape of the letter "W".
The "W" Road is located in Walden, Hamilton County, Tennessee, connecting the town to Chattanooga.
It was originally constructed in 1892-1893 through Roger's Gap in Walden's Ridge.
The road has a rich history, with its origins tracing back to American Indian trails and its use as a Union supply line during the Civil War.
This specific section was known for being treacherous, composed of logs at one point.
