About this map

Cave Run Lake dominates the western landscape of this terrain, where the Licking River winds through narrow valleys and into the vast reservoir. The area around Bangor and Mount Hope is a land of steep ridges and numerous small stream branches, such as Stillhouse Br and Sugar Cane Br, reflecting the deeply dissected topography of the region. This 2013 survey illustrates the balance between water-based recreation at the Zilpo Recreation Area and the quiet, dispersed upland settlements that define the local character.

Genealogists will find a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including Tackett Cem, Roll Alfrey Cem, and Back-Peyton Cem, scattered across the hillsides. A notable engineering feature is the Poppin Rock Tunnel near Paragon, where the landscape transitions into the drainage of the North Fork. Landmarks like Lockegee Rock stand as prominent natural sentinels over this network of hollows and ridges.
