2013 Map of Barthell
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
The Big S Fork Cumberland River carves a deep path through McCreary County, defining a landscape marked by coal-mining history and river-bottom settlements. In the eastern portion, the Blue Heron area and its Blue Heron Campground reflect the transition from industrial coal town to recreational site. Nearby, Barthell and Comargo sit tucked into the valleys, while the community of Co-Operative stands to the west. The terrain is exceptionally broken, featuring named hollows such as Boarding House Hollow and Natural Bridge Hollow, suggesting the narrow quarters where early residents built their lives.
