Fish Camp Prong was at the upper edges of the Little River Lumber Company. Little River Lumber Company was established in 1901 by Wilson Townsend and was one of 18 logging operations that, together, owned about 85% of the area that is now the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. By the 1920s, 300,000 acres had been clear-cut. The last log went through the Little River Mill at Townsend, Tennessee in July 1939
