2016 Map of Austin

About this map

The intricate shoreline of Barren River Lake dominates this 2016 survey, where the rising water has transformed the valleys of Peter Creek, Hurricane Creek, and Walnut Creek into a complex series of inlets and coves. This modern landscape is defined by the intersection of the reservoir's fingers with established rural communities. The small settlement of Austin remains a focal point on the eastern side, adjacent to the Austin Cemetery, while Cedar Springs and Maynard anchor the western and southern reaches of the map respectively.
