2019 Map of Cardwell Mountain

About this map

Mcminnville and its surrounding highlands are defined by the winding course of the Collins River, which carves through the terrain to create distinctive landforms like Higgenbottom Bend and Turners Bend. The landscape transitions from the developed streets of Mount Leo and Mcminnville into the significant elevations of Cardwell Mtn and Ben Lomond Mtn. Settlement patterns are clustered along historic corridors, with smaller communities like Shellsford, Smyrna, and Fairview serving as local hubs. The map reveals the deep-cut topography of the region, specifically in McGee Cove and Douglas Cove, where numerous springs and branches like Powder Mill Br and Powder Mill Springs emerge. Local history is anchored by sites such as the Higgenbottom Cem and Mount Vernon Cem, while the confluence of Barren Fork and the main river highlights the importance of water drainage in this part of Warren County.
